Less of me #2
Sep. 14th, 2009 11:24 amI was gratified when I weighed myself on Saturday to discover that I have lost a pound in the last week. It's not much, I know, but it is that small weight loss that will get me to my target safely and sustainably (I hope). There was a horrific story in the paper last week about a girl who lost something like 3 stone in 8 weeks and dropped dead. She had been following some crazy minimal calorie regime. I have read nothing good about that particular diet. Everyone I've seen comment about who has done it has immediately put back nearly or all of the amount they lost. As you would expect. I lost a lot of weight years ago with weight watchers, but that was over a two year period and it took several years more than that to put much of it back. Thankfully, I have never been as heavy again as I was when I started it.
This time I am doing Scottish Slimmers which works along similar principles, but mixing it in with a bit of low GL (which should help the bulge in the middle) and lots of exercise.
