All these 5:2 diet recipes are making me feel soooo guilty, I really should give it another go. I didn't work for me a couple of times I tried last year but I didn't really try for long enough. Soups are definitely the way forward on it though!

My colleague is doing the 5:2 diet. I think it's good that you can have 2 days off because it gives you something to look forward too.
