16lb to go!
They're supposed to be a fast weight loss solution right? In actual fact they're not!
Ok so taking LL as an example as it's the one I did for a while.
In 13 weeks (14 meetings) they say you'll lose 3stone, or maybe a bit more. So that's 42lb in 14 weeks. Then you do 12 weeks of reintroducing food, taking it to 26 weeks by the time you've finished with LL program and off the diet completely..
If you lose 2lb a week for 26 weeks, that's 52lb. That's over 10lb more, in the same amount of time.
That's a really manageable amount to lose every week on any diet be it calorie counting, low carb, or whatever. And you don't need to put yourself through living on 500cals a day! Sounds good to me..
Just my observation. I'm sure if you're doing it for longer and have more to lose, the averages work out more in favour of LL.
