I personally only follow the principles, keeping to the calorie allowance and low GI foods. If a diet is too restrictive then I wouldn't be able to keep to it.

I find keeping a diary a good motivation for me especially when it comes to doing exercise. As soon as I started logging things all of a sudden I could find 30 mins most days to do a physical exercise - which is really important to me, I may never be super skinny but I can be physically fit and...

I found the first two weeks the hardest but it is worth sticking to it because it gives you a kick start and it is only for two weeks..... You can still eat unlimited vegetables but not fruit but that is probably because it is a low GI diet and fruit can be high in GI. Good luck, I hope it goes...

May take a bit of time but you could work it out on any of the calorie counting websites that are around - going by the recipe it does look reasonable in calories provided not too much chicken is used Out of interest what does the diet coke add to the taste

3 lbs for me this week - I can't believe I have lost 16 lbs in the first 4 weeks. Thanks for your words of support and well done to everyone who keeps at it - after all if you don't try and do anything about it then your weight isn't going to just disappear magically on its own accord, if you...

Thought I should log what I eat to make myself stay on track but more importantly it will make me do more exercise because that is seriously lacking at the moment...

2lb off for me - if I get at least 1lb off this week then I would lose a stone in my first 4 weeks - fingers crossed

I too tend to save my power snacks for a dessert

That is excellent - well done for sticking at it I hope you are very proud of yourself

I have lost 3lb this week

Well done - like you say a loss is a loss. Every little counts and even if you only lose a lb a week it adds up over time

Well you are certainly eating all the right things - maybe it is just a body adjustment thing

Hopefully it is just a case you are having a slow start and soon the weight will start melting away if you stick with it.

Hi Today I had: 1 weetabix 1 low fat yoghurt 6 strawberries 70g wafer thin ham large salad Tablespoon of homemade chutney Homemade shepherds pie topped with sweet potato rather than white potato. (I used 250g of mince and 300g of potato and it will serve me 2 meals) large salad 2 pink and...

A bit of both - I used the plan's principles as my guide.

Can I join this please? I have just started my second week and looking for a steady 2lb a week after an 8lb loss in the first week Thanks

It has been a hard week but I have been rewarded with an 8lb loss!!:D I can't believe it - I am so glad that I stuck with it when I was tempted to stray. Hopefully the second week will be a bit easier and if it isn't I just need to remember that if I stick to it I will regret that less than...

I haven't been counting the calories - perhaps I have been eating too little although I have been eating 3 meals a day so I assumed I was getting enough calories just not enough food. Unfortunately I can't swap the meals around as I don't have the facility to heat food up at work. I might just...

Well done

I started last sunday and I am keeping to the diet but I am so tempted to stray because I am not always feeling full after eating - any advice would be welcomed
