What Members Eat on The Fast 800

The Fast 800 diet is based on science and designed by nutritionists and health experts to ensure you can become the healthiest, happiest version of yourself the healthy way.

No two members have the same journey on The Fast 800 diet, as each programme is tailored to individual dietary needs and health goals. Our unique combinations of recipes and meal plans are based on your preferences, and all are based on a Mediterranean-style diet, which is known to be the healthiest eating pattern in the world.

The Fast 800 Approaches:

We offer four different approaches to help you achieve weight loss or weight maintenance in a way that suits your lifestyle and aims:

• The Very Fast 800: This approach is for those seeking rapid weight loss or those aiming to lower blood sugar and place type 2 diabetes into remission. It involves consuming 800 calories daily with a low-carb Mediterranean-style diet.
• The Fast 800 Keto: This approach induces a more consistent nutritional ketosis. Unlike traditional ketogenic diets, it follows Mediterranean-style diet principles, making it easier to sustain and follow while still offering significant weight loss and health benefits. It’s lower in carbohydrates than The Very Fast 800 and slightly higher in calories.
• The New 5:2: This intermittent fasting diet is aimed at those looking to lose or maintain weight. It’s followed by consuming 800 calories two days a week, and enjoying sensible portions without the need for calorie counting on the remaining five days. These fasting days can be flexible around your existing schedule and change as and when you need it to. This way of eating follows a Mediterranean-style diet to help support metabolic health alongside weight loss.
• The Way of Life: This diet acts as a guide for those who want to improve their overall health and lifestyle, and maintain or gradually lose weight. It follows the principles of a moderately low-carb Mediterranean-style diet and reduces your risk of chronic disease. Plus, the clue’s in the name, this healthy diet can be followed for life.

Why our members love The Fast 800 food

Our nutrition team put a lot of work into creating recipes that are easy to follow and tasty to eat, but don’t just take it from us! Here are some of the reasons our members love what they eat when on the Programme:

• Surprised at how filling it is: All of our meals are formulated to have the right amount of fibre, protein and healthy fats to keep you satisfied, even on fasting days. Member Charlene reflects, “I didn’t really get hungry on the programme, even at first, but I think that was because the meals have been formulated to make sure you feel full.”
• Plenty of variety: The Programme caters to different dietary needs and tastes, with hundreds of recipes to choose from, there’s something for everyone. “There’s a heap of international dishes to choose from.” says member Steve, “Take advantage of the huge variety.”
• Delicious and easy to make: “I really didn’t want to over complicate things because I have such a busy life. I wanted food that would be easy to reach for and prepare.” As a result, most of our recipes take around 10 minutes to prepare, and are simple step-by-step guides to creating tasty, healthy meals you’ll actually enjoy eating.
• Great for partners too: Our recipes can easily be adapted for partners or family to enjoy too. For example, simply add brown rice or potatoes to most fasting dishes to make it satisfying for your non-fasting loved ones to eat. Or, why not join forces and transform your health with your other half, like members Chris and Lindsay and Sue and Nigel?
• It’s budget-friendly: Bernadette loved that pre-planning saved her money: “Since being on the programme, I’ve saved money and there’s less food wastage because the meal plan provides me with a shopping list of what I need to buy for my next week.”

Member’s favourite recipes:

Our members have achieved incredible health transformations, all while enjoying a delicious range of meals, so we asked a few of them what their favourite dishes were:

• Tanya: “Nasi Goreng with cauliflower rice. I also love the Pizza Zucchini, which uses zucchini as the base with tomato paste, olives and halloumi.”
• Bernadette: “For the first time last week, I tried the Spiced Pumpkin Pudding. It’s so good; I felt like I was being naughty eating it as it was so sweet.”
• Lorraine: “I always loved the kale recipes, in particular the Harissa Greens and Halloumi.”
• Steve: “I’m enjoying some of the Indian options, particularly the Lamb Keema Matar.”
