About this product
Product Information
By simply quartering your calorie intake on two non-consecutive days each week (500 calories for women, 600 for men), you'll lose weight quickly and easily -and the joy of the Fast Diet is that the side-effects are all good. The science is indisputable: intermittent fasting takes your body out of 'go-go' mode and puts it into survival mode. This causes the body to slow production of new cells and instead repair old ones. You not only lose weight, you reduce your risk of a range of diseases, from diabetes, asthma and arthritis to cardiovascular disease and even cancer. You also slow the ageing process and boost your brain. This book brings together the results of recent revolutionary research to create a dietary programme that anyone can incorporate into their normal working life. It also includes more than 40 'Fast 500' and '600' recipes by The Times nutritionist Sarah Marber. Far from being just another 'fad', The Fast Diet is a lifestyle choice which doctors are actually recommending for general health. This is your indispensible guide to making the kilograms fly off, while eating all the foods you love.Product Identifiers

Fantastic plan for losing weight sensibly!
My husband and I have been following this plan for the past 2 months and so far, have lost 1 stone each. We are not struggling with the fasting days, as they are easy to manage - you just have to make the best choices on those days and try to maximise the flavour and content of the choices you make. So far, so good and I can't see us stopping any time soon. Definitely the most manageable plan for losing weight sensibly on a regular basis.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

buy the recipe book instead
a bit too wordy though content is interesting it is a bit long winded much better to get the recipe book instead as it is easier to read and has all the relevant information you do not need both booksVerified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Reading this book has transformed my life!
I can't thank Dr Michael Mosely enough for writing this book. Both a friend and my sister had recommended this book after they both successful lost weight. It's such a useful reference book and inspiration to start a fast diet. This 2 day fast diet really works. Over 10 years I had put on over 1 stone/9 kgs. Whatever I did I couldn't seem to lose weight. And keep it off. I have been on the fast diet for 7 weeks now and have lost a 4kgs/9lbs. I've less than a kilo to lose to be back at my weight 10 years ago. This book has some colour plates of tasty meals. A calorie page, to help you make wise choices. This diet is very easy to follow. I can't recommend this book enough!!Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

The best healthy lifestyle book ever
A great little book that echoes and elaborates on Michael's Horizon documentary with some delicious fast day recipes thrown in. Arguments are backed by the most up to date science and research by many credible and authoritative sources. Reading and adopting its teachings really is a no-brainer for a sustainable healthier life. 10 out of 10 and thanks to Michael and Mimi for writing it.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

The Fast Diet
Very easy to understand and versatile the diet can be adapted to your lifestyle, although I have only been carrying out the plan for two weeks so far I am very pleased with the results. I would recommend that everybody should do the 5 to 2 diet and not just people who need to lose weight. Looking forward to seeing the end result.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Interesting concept for dieting
I wouldnt say the content is compelling - but is as compelling as a book about dieting and loosing weight will ever get! It is well written and factual without overloading on the science aspect of dieting.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

The Fast Diet
For those of you who want to start a diet in the New Year this is the book for you. Easy to read, easy to do. Because you are fasting on 2 days and eating normally for 5 it doesn't feel like you are on a diet. Lots of information, calorie counter and a few menus for the days you fast. Excellent, give it a read.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
