Doing the 5:2 - it's just finding the right ideas on how to deliciously fill your belly with goodness that is under 200 calories. Using vegetables is really key to get the most bang for your caloric buck! You find stuff to make and then forget about it, which is why I am making a 5:2 category so I can go back and remember delicious and nutritious ways to eat my calories. Plus you can get stuck in a rut of eating the same types of things because you know they are fine. Its so much better to get some variety in there. Keeps your interest!
