I lost 5 lbs on my DIY version of the 5-day Fasting Mimicking Diet (FMD) while eating tasty home cooked meals every day! I lost abdominal fat and “love handle” padding while preserving muscle mass. Watch the video for more results (% body fat lost; change in BMI) and other benefits of the diet and get my thoughts on what made it easy and what I will change the next time I do it.
