Getting fast results

DAILY, unending deprivation, with no let-up, is the downfall for most dieters. Now, this is contradicted by a radical approach: intermittent fasting (IF) and its more rigorous cousin, alternate-day fasting (ADF). Both buck the accepted wisdom — that one must never skip a meal. This diet advocates ‘fasting’ — reducing your calories to one-quarter of the daily recommended intake — on at least two non-consecutive days a week, and eating whatever you want on the remaining days.
With the element of sacrifice dramatically reduced, dieters on both sides of the Atlantic are saying ‘yeah, I could handle that’.
