Publisher's Summary
Not just weight loss - better health too! The authors of the book that is still the number one UK nonfiction best seller six months after publication now present their work for Audible listeners and make it even easier to adopt their brilliant system.
Far from being just another fad, the Fast Diet is a radical new way of thinking about food, a lifestyle choice that could transform your health. This is your indispensable guide to simple and effective weight loss, without fuss or the need to endlessly deprive yourself. Eat normally for five days each week, and cut your calories on the other two. Scientific trails of Intermittent Fasting have shown that it will not only help the pounds fly off but also lower your risk of a range of diseases including diabetes, heart disease and cancer.
Dr Michael Mosley, the medical journalist who presented the BBC Horizon programme which alerted the world to the IF phenomenon, presents the science behind the 5:2 diet, and Mimi Spencer, award-winning writer, explains the practicalities. It really is straightforward to incorporate this groundbreaking weight-loss system.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your My Library section along with the audio.

Informative and encouraging
After seeing Michael Mosley on TV I wanted to look further into this diet. I've only been doing the 5:2 for a couple of weeks so far and the results are showing. This book really inspired me and gave me the confidence to start the fasting diet. It also helped that the scientific and technical stuff is explained in a way that is easy to understand. Highly recommended!

Excellent Book
Would you consider the audio edition of The Fast Diet to be better than the print version?
As I have not read the print version of this book I am unable to say wether the audio version is better. For me, as I am so busy, I listen to audiobooks while commuting or in the car.
What did you like best about this story?
I liked that the authors were also the narrators.
Which character – as performed by Michael Mosley and Mimi Spencer – was your favourite?
Michael Mosley but they were both relevant
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
Definitely the part that discussed about scientific research.
Any additional comments?
Great book, good science to back it up. A must read if you want to lose weight with a minimum if fuss.

Very Motivating.
A concise and motivating explanation of a very interesting concept. I would have liked a bit more detail in the planning of the fast, but the science is good.

Very informative.
I am very interested in this diet, as it a way of life, not a forever "diet".
I'm trying to get pregnant so it is not recommended for me. But in the future I will do it for the overall health benefits.
