FTA: It’s called the 5:2 diet because five days of the week are normal eating days, while the other two restrict calories to 500–600 per day.

Quote from the article:

> Others like the 5:2 diet (in which dieters eat a normal amount of food for five days before two days of eating only 25% of their usual calorie intake) focus more on the amount of food consumed, rather than the time between meals.
