2 paper-thin 8g slices of pancetta or bacon (70 cals)
85g scallops (three medium- sized ones) (75 cals)
50g sliced, washed leeks (30 cals)

- Cut each scallop into two discs and pat dry on kitchen paper. Cook in the pan with the pancetta fat for a couple of minutes on each side, until browned. Lift them on to the pancetta plate.
- Add the leeks to the pan and cook in the last of the scallop and pancetta juices until soft. Add the peas and cook, stirring, until the peas are hot through. Stir in most of the dill, then taste and season with salt and pepper.

Диета "5:2" Майкла Мосли. Третья неделя. Понедельник.

Диета "5:2" Майкла Мосли. Вторая неделя. Второй разгрузочный.


Меню с использованием сезонных продуктов - это важно!:
Утром - porridge/каша - Овсяная каша на воде - 88 калорий.Днем - яйцо всмятку со спаржей - 90 калорий.
Вечером (до 6 часов) - Курица "Путанеска"/"Puttanesca" - 247 калорий.
Итого калорий - 425. Что меньше 500!
Так что утренняя каша может быть и с ревенем. (Ревень богат солями калия, железа, кальция, фосфора, магния, а также микроэлементами.)
Или чувство голода можно утолить овощным супом в небольшом количестве.
Итак, рецепты:

Lo-Lo Meatballs with Cavolo Nero.
Calorie count: 264
Lo-lo, because much of the saturated fat you’d usually find in a typical Italian mamma meatball has been stripped out by swapping to a leaner meat and eliminating all but the merest flash of oil.
Serves 2
264 cal per person
Ingredients
For the meatballs
200g lean pork mince or turkey mince (I used turkey mince)
half a med red onion (chopped)
1 garlic clove (peeled and crushed) (I used a little bit of pre-minced garlic for speed)
1 small carrot (grated)
pinch of oregano
1 egg (beaten)
salt and pepper
oil for spraying (you can make up your own spray bottle of oil, or buy one of the spray cans)

The 5:2 diet: can it help you lose weight and live longer?
The 5:2 diet: can it help you lose weight and live longer? - Telegraph:
The 5:2 diet: what is it and how does it work?
• With the 5:2 diet, you can eat whatever you like five days a week — so-called feeding days. On the two “fasting days” you eat 500 calories if you are a woman, or 600 calories if you are a man.
- It doesn’t matter which days are spent “feeding” and which “fasting”, as long as the fasting days are non-consecutive and you stick to the 5:2 ratio.
- On fasting days you can consume your calories in one go, or spread them through the day — there is no medical research into whether filling up at breakfast or snacking throughout the day is more effective for weight loss.
- A typical fasting-day breakfast of 300 calories might consist of two scrambled eggs with ham (good sources of protein), plenty of water, green tea or black coffee. For a typical 300-calorie lunch or dinner, try grilled fish or meat with vegetables.
- On feeding days you can eat whatever you like. Most dieters, rather than feeling a need to gorge, found that they were happy to consume around 2,000 calories — the recommended daily intake for women (2,600 for men) — and did not crave high-fat foods.
- Contrary to popular opinion, fasting can be a healthy way to lose weight. It can reduce levels of IGF-1 (insulin-like growth factor 1, which leads to accelerated ageing), switches on DNA repair genes and reduces blood pressure, cholesterol and glucose levels.
- According to current medical opinion, the benefits of fasting are unproven. As a diet, it is not recommended for pregnant women or diabetics on medication. Anyone considering a diet that involves fasting is advised to consult their GP first, and to do it under medical supervision.

Hugh's anti-Atkins diet
This is principally a diet for energy and health, not weight loss, but serious fatties will probably find the kilos fall off. By rights I should earn billions for this, as it is guaranteed to keep you well-nourished and fit for the rest of your life. But here it is, gratis, from the goodness of my happy, healthy heart:
For breakfast
Eat a bunch of fresh fruit. Then, if you're still really hungry, have a piece of toast.
Mid-morning snack
Eat more fruit. Then, if you're still really hungry, have another piece of toast.
Lunch
Eat a bunch of veg. Raw if possible. If you're still hungry, have a sandwich (but not two), or a piece of chicken, or a lump of cheese (but not both). Eat with juice or water, not Coca Cola or Fanta.
Mid-afternoon
Have another piece of fruit. If it's a bad day, have a biscuit too.
Supper
Eat whatever the hell you like. If you're actually trying to lose weight, eat whatever the hell you like, but not too much of it.
It's very good advice, especially when added to the heart-healthy stuff about not too much saturated fat - limits on cheese, butter, meat, and, above all, processed food.
