That is, for two of the 7 day week, you eat extreme low calorie (but highly nutritional) foods, while the other 5 days you can eat what you normally do. It’s just a carefully planned couple of days each week to bring health benefits and weight loss, while keeping the hunger pangs at bay. The benefits and resulting in a 5 week loss in weight of approx. 15-20 lb. The fasting day’s intake should below a set line of 500 for women, 600 for men.
