Hi everyone

So I’ve finally reached my goal and I’ve lost a total of 42 pounds and so far kept it off for several months :) woohoo! Myfitnesspal is definitely what’s helped me do it – keeping track of everything etc but I’ve found a diet that really works for me too and wanted to share cos I think it's fantastic :)

It’s really easy to follow and I lost 4.5 pounds in the first days when I tried it and I didn’t feel hungry or deprived at all and I also lost body fat percentage and inches from my waist, hips, thighs etc. I also found that my skin, hair and nails improved which is an added bonus and shows to me that it must be nutritionally sound. It's a free diet so hopefully it’s ok that I’m posting this – it’s just so awesome and I’m so amazed by how simple it is and relatively easy to follow that I wanted to let people know. It’s no magic or miracle diet and still needs effort and commitment but it’s totally doable and could easily be a sustainable diet plan for life I think. It’s not a crash diet either and there are options to work in extra cals etc if you’re really active or at the point when you’re trying to maintain.

It’s called the “7 day kick start plan” and you can check it out here http://www.pureformfitness.co.uk (there's a link on the left).

It’s based around veg and protein – meat and fish, (with vegetarian options) and has been developed and adapted from some other well known diets. The person who’s developed it is a qualified fitness instructor and she really knows her stuff.
The diet itself is free and you’ll see on that webpage that it’s run through a facebook group and we’re all on here too so if you end up deciding to try it it might be worth mentioning that you heard it here (or mention my username) so she knows who’s asking to be added etc but it’s really cool so check it out and see what you think :)

Anyway I hope others find this useful
:)

    Just wanted to post again cos I've just weighed and measured myself and have managed to continue to maintain using this diet - so it's not just brilliant for weight loss but easily adjusted for maintenance too :) Am so chuffed! Some other people on the diet have lost half a stone in 3 weeks on it - it really is awesome :)

    one of the ladies who's been on the diet has just posted her results - after 3 weeks she's lost 7 pounds and inches everywhere - including 3.5 inches around her waist! I'm still trying to maintain my loss now but I'll be back on the diet on weds with the new challenge, I'll just be upping the amounts I eat and including some non-starchy carbs to get to maintainance cals :)

    I just can't believe how good this diet is - the lady who's designed it is fab too and really supportive :)

    a new round of the diet starts today :) I'm still managing to use it to maintain whilst others are using it to lose (I'm adding in some extra things like quinoa and spelt to up my calories) :) It's fab! :)

    I'm still going strong on this diet. Later stages of the diet involve bringing in more foods - I'm totally addicted to spelt now thanks to this! :) Do check it out :)

    (her website is being updated at the moment but it shoudl still be there under the "7 day kick start" link at the side :)
