After trying every diet in the book literally at last a diet that works for me.
I have now lost 1.5 stone or 21 lb in 20 weeks.
Some weeks I have to go to 4:3 to keep the weight coming off, my pot belly has now all but disappeared hopefully with loss of the internal Visceral fat, but after using the TDEE calculator i found I was exceeding my non fast days calorie total of 1840 calories on my eating days, so I now keep to 1800 a day on eating days and now down to 460 on my fast days, so I fast on Green tea, water and no cal drinks through the day and enjoy a 460 calorie meal in the evening it works for me. And 1840 calories on an eating day is plenty to allow a normal enjoyfull eating day.
