Has anyone tried intermittent fasting?

I've been meaning to try this out but don't know how to start. Is it worth the hype?

You can do the 5-2 diet. You pick two days where you restrict calories to 500 and no more for the day. In essence what you are doing is cutting down your overall weekly calorie intake. Some folk eat the entire 500 calorie allowance in one meal at night...others split it. It doesn't matter how.

Others find it easier to simply fast instead. Water and coffee allowed. No sugar. I find as soon as you eat something you continue to want to eat. So having the 500 calories in one meal worked for me.
