At the beginning of this year I decided that I was going to spend one more year trying to lose weight and if I wasn't successful then I was going to rap my hand in and just eat properly and exercise.
I have every type of diet ever printed - so many that I could start a diet book library!!
So far this year I have tried
1. Weightwatchers - 2 months 3 pounds off
2. Slimming world - 2 months 2 pounds off
3. Cambridge - 2 weeks 10 pounds
4. Dash diet - 6 weeks 5 pounds
6. Calorie counting - on and off - 0 pounds
7. exercise - No weight off but my legs and bum have toned up
I thought each one of these was going to be my saviour - but no
I am now exactly the same weight I was at the beginning of the year. Although I have done all these diets I have really tried and I can honestly say that although I wasn't 100% I was 80 - 90 % so much so that I have stopped drinking in the week and now limit myself to only a certain amount of wine and/or vodka at the weekend. - for me that is a massive sacrifice - not that i am an alcoholic but a glass of wine at the end of the working day is what makes the world go round
So as a last ditch attempt I am going to try Low Carb - I am going to give it my all until 24 Jan 2011 which is 10 weeks and in this time I want to have lost between 15 and 20 pounds and if I do then I will stick to it - what do you think - any help and/or opinons would really help
thanks for reading:wave_cry:
