Dr Mosley, who tragically died earlier this year, is known for his fasting methods, with his 5:2 and Fast 800 plans credited by many for helping them lose weight and transform their health. According to the Fast 800 website, the diet is "flexible", allowing individuals to "switch easily between each approach as their needs change".
The plan involves cutting down on carbs while boosting intake of protein, healthy fats, and vegetables, aligning closely with the life-extending Mediterranean diet, which is built around fruits, vegetables, seafood, beans, and nuts. Chris and Lindsay, a couple who both adhere to the Fast 800 lifestyle, say it has "absolutely changed our lives". In a video shared on the official Fast 800 Instagram account, Chris said: "I lost three stone in the first twelve weeks and then trickled another stone off over the rest of the year.
" Lindsay chimed in with her own success, saying: "I've lost two stone in total and kept it off". The pair embarked on their Fast 800 journey about 15 months.
