The so-called fast diet calls for eating normally for five days and then eating a reduced amount, five hundred calories for women and six hundred for men, on the remaining two days of every week. By reducing your calorie intake for just two days a week, you will reset your metabolism and rev up your body’s fat-burning ability to cause dramatic weight loss without deprivation. The 5:2 Fast Diet Cookbook is the key to learning what to eat on these low-calorie fasting days. Inside you’ll find recipes and tips for getting the most satisfaction and fullness from your low-calorie bucks. With 150 nutritious recipes, none of which has more than two hundred calories per serving, you’ll have a wide variety of choices for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks on these two crucial days. With delicious dishes like garlic, ginger, and honey chicken and roasted cauliflower with Parmesan, you definitely will not feel deprived on your fasting days! These recipes are packed with flavor and are easy to make, even for busy weeknight meals.
