About the Publisher
The 2-Day Diet, otherwise known as the ‘5:2 Diet’ or ‘intermittent fasting’, is taking the world by storm. Anyone can follow its simple premise that you only diet two days a week and eat healthily the rest of the time. These delicious and simple recipes are tailored to suit your lifestyle throughout the year. Cutting your calories for only two days a week couldn’t be easier.
When I got back from holiday in August 2012 I knew it was time to lose some weight. A holiday diet of fish and chips and ice cream had left me feeling stodgy and jiggly in all the wrong places. I’d tried many diets before and never stuck to them. But as soon as I heard about the 2-Day Diet I just knew it was for me. Diet only two days a week – what’s not to like? I can honestly say that I have never looked back.
With the 2-Day Diet I reached my target weight within six months and I now maintain my weight by dieting just one day a week. I have noticed other changes too. My body shape and with it my body confidence has changed. I’m not pencil thin but I’m happy and comfortable in my skin. I have got bags of energy – a definite plus when I’m chasing after my three children. Finally, the 2-Day Diet has re-invigorated my love of food and cooking. By awakening real hunger on diet days, I taste and savour every delicious mouthful of my food. On my normal days, I don’t worry about food yet I eat healthily, cooking proper easy meals for myself and my family.
The recipes here are tailored to how real people eat throughout the year. In the winter, I want hot food all the time: casseroles and soups are the order of the day. Yet in summer the food I eat is totally different: I want salads and grilled meats.
Like everyone I know, I am obsessed with the weather in the UK. The sunshine (or lack of it) is forever intertwined with how I feel and what I eat.
This cookbook is about embracing the changing seasons and enjoying your food whatever the weather. The recipes are all low calorie and suitable for diet days, yet are designed to be enjoyed on any day of the week.
I hope you enjoy cooking and eating my recipes as much as I enjoyed creating them.

The jump-start – your low-calorie days
Everyday eating for your five healthy days
The 2-Day Diet is a diet you can stick to. People everywhere are finding that this great new diet has life-changing results. You only diet two days a week. This means that on five days a week you don’t need to worry or think about food all the time. What other diet allows you puddings and nights out and still gives you amazing results? I love it and I think you will too.
How it works
On two non-consecutive days a week, follow a calorie-restricted diet. That’s the jump-start. It means:
• 500 calories for women
• 600 calories for men
On the other five days, eat three healthy balanced meals a day.
