2 days of dieting per week are enough. On the remaining five days, you can eat whatever you want – and still lose weight. This is the concept of intermittent fasting or the 5:2 diet. On fasting days, you consume one meal with 500 calories that is rich in proteins and vitamins but contains very few carbohydrates. This book provides 50 recipes for these fasting days, complete with detailed nutritional information. Each recipe is illustrated. Recipe examples include fried mackerel fillets, salad bowl with spicy beef slices, and basmati rice with crab meat.
