Portion control!! Best advice I was ever given. Switch to a smaller plate and have minimum half as vegies / salad and pile it up, qtr carbs (pasta,spuds etc) qtr protein (meat, fish, quorn etc). Snacks should be less than 150 calories and 5% fat.

oh, do you have the name of it hun? sounds like a trip to aldi will be on the cards for me!

Well I currently have 2 goals. Wear a size 16 wedding dress (getting married July 2010) Not been a 16 for a long long time so that would be quite a big thing for me. :rolleyes: My ultimate weight goal is 12stone. My ideal weight for my height is actually more like 10st 6lb but will see...

Hello! I have lost over 5st after asking the GP to refer my to a dietician. Nothing scary and it was on my own terms as I asked. Maureen has been wonderful, supportive, and very helpful. She doesn't judge me and she listens. I have laughed, cried, got annoyed, been elated but most of...

I have lost over 5st so far in my journey. :D I still have a fair bit to go as you can see from my details. But I do not see any difference when I look at before and after pics etc. I also asked a friend her honest opinion and she doesn't see that much of a change either. I know there must...
