Yes Kattie- I have- I think it works quite well, but as Hingis says there is the perennial issue with all diets of returning to normal eating.
Also I found it slightly gave me unhealthy obsessive feelings towards eating.
I think- and this is completely without evidence other than my own- that it is one of the more effective diets of the current breed of fads.
Also @ Hingis- you've given up carbs- which- yes it does work, but it does not last...
I can't find the evidence that Cochrane/NICE/a higher health body (I can't remember- it was from 1st year) came up with, but they assessed a lot of the diets around (not the 5:2) and found that simple calorie restriction (via the helping hand of WeightWatchers/ Jenny Craig) were the most effective after long-term follow up.
