Google the 8 week blood sugar diet .... he's promoting this and been quite successful by all accounts. I think I'm going to cut the carbs but keep up with the calories.

I'm doing the blood sugar diet which is the same man that did the 5:2 plan .... it's basic principles is meaditerrainian style food , no pasta, rice, wheat, sugar. You do 8 weeks at 800 cals a day and then increase your cals to eat to appetite afterwards

I think it's because I'm also exercising. I've used myfitnesspal before and lost 7 stone but 2 kids later and no thyroid I thought I would give it a shot. I think maybe your right I should do 2 days of fasting and 5 days of maybe 1200 ? X

Feel free to add me

Also been here many times.... I originally lost 8 stone but I'm back as after maintaining for a year I've gained 4 stone back, my diary is open if you want to add me as a friend :-)

hI, was diagnosed with PCOS and ENDO last year. Ive found that losing 50lbs so far has made my cycle more regular but not by a long shot 'normal' i still have a way to go but i do not take anything from the dr. i also suffer really bad body hair and this by far is the thing that bothers me the most :(
-
hey :) Yes i would definatelty reccomend some sort of strength training ... i also did the 30DS and it did shift the lbs but didnt tighted/tone enough. Cardio burns your fat strength training defines your muscle. Im currently in a plateau ... so im swopping and changing my eating habbits/workouts but feel free to add me…
