123 diet reviews?

RobinsonDawn

Hello everyone, I will be trying the 123 diet however in the past I have tried soo many diets which either do not work or they work for a while and then I put all the weight back on.
If anyone has done this diet, tell me how you found it and whether it was any good or not, will be very greatful

I'm not familiar with the 123 diet.

Have you tried creating a moderate calorie deficit and just eating the foods you would normally eat, but calorie counting & tracking so that you don't eat too much?

RobinsonDawn

Ah yeah, i've tried most of that but doing a bit of research apparently this 123 diet does wonders, it's basically just a low carb diet but it keeps you full! I tend to eat tons of carbs so I should probably work on that lol

NO

Just eat less and move more.

Everyone just wants to believe that there is a miracle quick fix.

There isn't.

RobinsonDawn

I don't think there is a quick fix at all...
I would just like to be healthier within myself and lose a few extra pounds

All diets have to be made up by someone however it is normally a dietitian who does it, so agreed.
However A LOT of people seem to be getting brilliant results from it!

So, take the power of your weight loss into your own hands. Don't turn your success over to some online or book author who has tweaked some "plan" to try to make a buck.

Be consistent, stay under your calorie goals more often than not. Stick with it. Eat a well balanced plan of lean meats, fats, vegetables, fruit, dairy, nuts, and limit your grains.

The only thing that works is properly tracking your calorie intake.

It's up to you to do the work. You don't need a "Diet Plan". You need to be consistent.

The website looks pretty scammy. Why not just use MFP to track calories and eat healthy foods you like? This is FREE and it works.

Actually you have found the best rated Consumer Report weight loss site. This free site and most of the other free sites out ranked all the expensive alternatives.
Simply eat more fruits and vegetables and beans and way less animal products.
Nobody has to become a vegetarian or vegan, but try to lean that way.
I also suggest to ditch wheat because it increases hunger.
Good Luck.

So... how about creating a moderate calorie deficit, eating pretty much the foods you eat usually, tracking & counting calories... and if you feel like it, experiment with reducing carbs? Or, if feeling full is the main issue, focus on getting enough protein and filling up on vegetables. A lot of people have been very successful just using MFP to count calories. It's also a pretty sustainable way of doing things because you only make the changes that you want to make, not according to rules that someone else has made up.

RobinsonDawn

Yes this is what I am going to try and do!
Thanks

Currently on 123 diet . Researched it and although its a 'made up' diet. Its makes sense. Basically it is a very low carb low fat diet. Ive tried them all ww, sw, special k shakes etc etc and calorie counting (trying to still have the treats with it) nothings been as effective as this. I'm not hungry and full of energy. Give it ago. Abs nothing to lose. Apart fron 14 quid.

dont do a diet, do a lifestyle change

I was on this diet for about 3 months and yeah, it had good results. However, I ended up having to go to the doctors because of how ill it made me, and they told me I was bordering on scurvy!! It's so not worth the health risks, and everyone in the fb group are no brained idiots who all think they are dietitians.

I have been on this diet since September - so far 3 1/5 stone lighter. It basically follows the rules if you can't kill it or pick it then don't eat it. I love it and it's the only diet that has ever worked for me - I have tried them all. It's healthy and well balanced. It cuts out all the wrong foods, like processed bread, pasta, rice etc.. And let's you bulk up on the more natural food like veg and meat. Plus it makes you drink more water, so as long as you are following it correctly then you won't have any side effects like constipation. It has changed my life, I'm 1 1/5 stone to go until my goal. At first I thought I'd try it for 3 months and see how it goes, the weight just falls off. You get a lot of support too from the administrators and terri, which helps. Give it ago - you have nothing to lose but weight

There is no such thing as a wrong food. Balance and moderation in everything!
