JIMMY KIMMEL: 5:2 DIET

Late-night TV show host Jimmy Kimmel admits that he is a “total foodie” person, so it is tough for him to undergo diet. No one can resist good food, after all. However, he started to take good care of his health because his current weight reached a staggering 208 pounds. Jimmy used a 5:2 diet to lose weight.

It is intermittent fasting, where he could only eat 25% of the recommended calorie intake, from the usual 2,000 calories a day to 500-600 calories, on his 2-week fasting schedule. Michael Mosley and Jimmy himself popularly made this method. They gave it credit for helping decrease the risk of chronic disease and, of course, because of its weight-loss ability.
However, this diet is not recommended for everybody because it will restrict your calorie intake. Jimmy himself even stopped following this diet. Although it looks easy, it is easier said than done.
