Ken asks…
What is the best way to loose 1 1/2 stone by September?
I currently weigh 10st 7lbs but I’m only 5′ 3″ so it really shows. I was always 9st pre pregnancy. I can’t afford to go to a gym and don’t seem to have enough time to exercise, plus I find exercise very boring. I want to get back to my pre pregnancy weight to feel healthy again as I’m feeling bloated and lethargic at the moment.
I do try to eat healthily but seem to get so tired I have to have a sugar boost and weight doesn’t naturally drop off.
Any help and adivce would be great. I don’t have time or money to create lavish dishes from a diet recipe book.
Please help. I don’t want a quick fix. I want the weight to stay off and I’m quite prepared for it to take a few months.
Thanx in advance.
Dawn.

I’ve answered this question a few times before on Answers, but I’m happy to say it again – Slimming World.
Normal healthy living and eating didn’t really work well enough for me, but one and a half years ago I tried Slimming World and lost over three stone in just less than a year! I know it sounds corny, and I was a true skeptic before then, but what can I say? It works! I don’t quite know how or why, but I feel better now than I have done in years. I went from size 18/ 20 to 12/ 14 and have kept it off. I am now the weight I was when I first got married ten years ago and had not seen on the scales since then!!
It’s definately acheivable. And because it’s normal food, just different combinations, the whole family can do it and it’s completely safe. I am sticking with this as a lifestyle change rather than a diet because I struggled for so long, like you, and now I’ve found something that works, I don’t want to lose it!
Why don’t you go to www.slimming-world.co.uk to find out where your nearest group is.
I don’t actually go to the sessions anymore, but still stick closely to the plan. It’s been a year and I have maintained, no problem. I stay motivated because I know where I was and I’m not going back there! I never thought anything could do it, but I did and you could too! All the best to you!

Regarding Liquid diets, to help you lose weight fast, does anyone know of a particular liquid diet/recipes?
I just want to know if there are any liquid diet recipes or plans out there that I can begin, besides just drinking protein shakes and things like that.

First you take a pan of water…and heat that up…
That’s about the healthiest you’re going to get with all that low cal, fat…blahblahblah
The way to lose weight is…
* Stop drinking soda
* Eat sugary foods VERY sparingly, or not at all if you can help it
* Exercise
* Drink a LOT of water
* Eat smaller portions
* Be aware of everything you add to food that jacks up the total fat/cal count….such as a nutrious salad with very fattening dressing
* Give yourself ” rewards ” for getting so far…
Ex. ” Lose 10 pounds, get a new shirt….lose 5 more, get a cappucino ”
With a reward system, you won’t feel as though you’re depriving yourself from as much.
Good luck! If I can do it, anyone can!!!
