Staying at 30 is fine but don't go lower as your body can have a defficiency and can also cause constipation! good luck!

starting weight: 213 pounds 12th November: 210 pounds Well done everyone! And do not worry if you haven't lost anything or put on a bit; keep going and make it count the week after! x

Sorry for the delay guys! I was just so tired coming home from work that i fell asleep! i work in a special school with children with challenging behaviour! So it is extremely exhausting but very rewarding! Lets do our first weekly weigh in tomorrow (tuesday 12th nov) and it will be great to see the change big or…

I did not and would not encourage you to folloq the information did i. I am merely informing people of what worked for me. It may not be healthy but in desperate times something has to be done and only a person who has a lot of weight to lose can understand that. So if i am providing guidance and gaining support from…

Very realistic. A fitness trainer told me that it is possible and healthy to lose upto 20 pounds in a month. Also if you look at Jillian's 30 day shred it says by following that you can lose upto 20 pounds. :)

No one's asked you to try it or provide your input as you can see on the title there is no question asking your opinion. If you think the diet is not right for you than feel free to move forward and walk away, because no one would want you to join in our friendly and positive group; as you do not fit the criteria. :) Good…

There is only so much protein one can have. Following the Dukan diet I lost 1 stone in just over a fortnight. My daily diet was 2 boiled eggs without yolk for breakfast. 3 boiled eggs (2 with yolk and 1 without) for lunch. And half a chicken for dinner. Snacking on fat free yogurt when hungry. Came to roughly 800calories…

Truly agree i dont believe that at all! No one way of dieting works for everyone plus you can still lose weoght by consuming good fats so giving up fats will be just foolish. Plus seeing as yu have just STARTED looking at nutrition i would much rather go slong with my doctor and gym instructors recommendations of following…

Yes but i ate only protein being chicken. And yogurt. And i could not eat more than 700calories. Plus people have different appetites and ways of functioning. Yet again as i mentioned i am in no way forcing snone to do a low carb diet but merely offering my support and gaining support of those who wish to do it with me.…

Yes you are right! Plus research shows when losing weight with a high protein diet it avoids saggy skin after weight loss! So an added bonus! YAY! lol

Following a low carb diet you will notice that your calorie content naturally get lower and your appetite goes down. Foods which are high in protein such as chicken will fill you up and they contain reasonably amount of calories and if you continue it for a fortnight or so you will see your appetite going down and you will…

Hi Misti, I totally understand where you are coming from! Eventhough it is still carbs I would suggest sweet potato as it is a better option to normal potato. Or a better option would be parsnips..once I had parsnips for xmas dinner at my workplace and didn't realise they weren't chips till someone told me after I finished…

Wow! I love the idea of the cauliflower rice! I will defo try that one! x

You are right Kimbers! That is very inspirational and seeing the scales go down is always a motivation!

WOW that is really impressive! I don't think I would have been able to resist those krispy kremes LOL. Best thing for me is to just not go past there lol. I resisted the pack of Cadbury choc packs containing my favourite twirl and flake! Whenever you feel like losing weight is too hard and u want to give up just use this…

wow well done you all! I avoided my favourite almond finger mini cakes today and was like no! i can do it lol...it will all be worth it at the end!

LOL i agree i was the same. But doing it weekly tells me that the time will come on monday lol so i get all excited and try even harder because i want to see results the next tome i step on those scales! (fingers crossed) xx

I believe when you can do without it why have it? Why have the excess wheb i know that doing a low carb diet and avoiding the not needed fat could exceed my weight loss?

A calorie controlled diet can be depriving and leave us still hungry. So it makes sense to be able to eat as much food as we need to feel full (low carb foods) in oppose to depriving ourselves and constantly counting the calories before putting anything in our mouth. Consequently, once you finish a calorie controlled diet…

Everyone has their own opinions and ideas of how and what works and doesnt. Therefore o leave that upto you to go along with your ideas. I am merely giving suggestions to people to suggest what does work. If you look at research you will see the negative effects of white carbs (unhealthy) carbs such as rice pasta and bread…

Carbs are also important in a person's diet. However, the carbs should really come from fruits and vegetables. I have tried giving it up completely and I felt really bloated and it causes constipation!

Fresh fruit and veg is good ideas for snacks on a low carb diet. Try a corn on the cob boiled or fire popped with some spices if you like it spicy. Or a carrot sticks? Cucumber sticks? A boiled egg?

WOW! that is brilliant results hun and a great motivation to other dieters! You can do it!

Good snack ideas is mainly fruits and veg sticks? Dipped in fat free or a low fat and low carb (read labels) dips. Seafood sticks are also a good snack idea if you like them. Mainly avoid processed foods and focus on natural foods.

Hi guys, A low carb diet can be as strict as you personally want it and depends a lot on your will power. The general rule I like to follow is: No bread No pasta No rice No potato No junk If you just follow this rule, the diet is bound to work but like I said it depends on your will power and personal preferences. You can…
