5:2 Diet Tips Fasting Day Hidden Calories Tip Cheat Sheet Infographic 5:2 Diet Tips Fasting Day Hidden Calories Tip Cheat SheetPart of what makes the Two-Day 5:2 Diet Plan so popular is its simplicity. You only need diet and track your calories for 2 days a week, leaving you with the freedom to enjoy delicious and healthy foods without needing to track what you eat for 5 days a week. However, could you be inadvertently sabotaging your Diet Days?
I'm sure you know that on your 2 Diet Days, it is really important to track everything that you eat and drink in your 24hr fasting phase. The best way to do this is to write everything down, either in a pocketbook or on your mobile phone or tablet. As well as there not being much of a margin for error on diet days, tracking leads to conscious consumption.
Also, be aware of hidden calorie traps on dieting days, it's all too easy to exceed your 500 or 600 calorie limit by not being mindful of the calories in the most innocent-looking food and drink. For example, did you know that a mug of tea with semi-skimmed milk is 18 calories and that there are even 6 calories in a teaspoon of black pepper?
With that in mind, I've put together a FREE diet days cheat sheet PDF identifying the calories that lurk in food and drink that we could easily consume almost without thinking!
