Hello everybody,

new year, new resolutions… I heard about the 5:2 diet last month for the first time when I saw a tv programme about it here in Germany. It sounded interesting and doable, so I thought I’d give it a go in the new year and here I am.

Some info about me: I am 27 years old and live in the middle of Germany. I work in an office and don’t really do sports. I wouldn’t say I’m really overweight, but I wouldn’t mind losing a few kilos. And becoming healthier sounds good too… in addition to 5:2 I want to do some more sports – even if it’s only a fitness video on youtube every other day.

Let’s see how it goes 🙂

So, are there any other Germans here?

Hi there Vanessa!

I am German, 49 years old, but have not lived back home in over 20 years. I lived in the UK for 19 years and for the last 7 years in Vancouver, Canada.

Good luck with your new way of life!

Stef.

Thanks, Stef!

The first Fast Day went okay, although I exceeded my 500 calories a bit… but I think I’ll get used to it.
