    Diets

    I'm fed up of looking like a beached whale.. No offense to whales of course I've been looking online at some dieting sites like slimming world and weight watchers but I really dont have the money to go spending like £90 for one that doesn't actually work I guess it just all confuses me! Has anyone tried any of these? Have you had much sucess? Idealy I want to lose 2 stone because I think I would definatly benifit from it but I dont want to go to a diet class/ meeting because I have no one to go with and I just dont have the confidence to walk into a room of strangers and get weighed infront of one! Sad I know.. Anyway any suggestions?

    From my experience with friends on diets the ones that worked are the diets that they didn't pay for, they just cut down on the amount of food that they were eating and gave up some but not all of the junk food. A bit of exercise helps too. Will power is also needed.

    I've never been on a diet so I can only go by what others have done.

    Have you visited PT's Fitness Friday's Health Club??? You should!

    And for the record, just forget about the word "diet" . . . it never works. Consider changing your lifestyle. Change your eating habits & the way you live - become active, and you'll loose weight! Trust me, I've lost 54 pounds from changing my lifestyle!!!

    There is NO NEED in spending money on any dieting gimmicks when all you have to do is cut back, eat better, MOVE!!! Cut your calories, eat more fiber, less processed food, more veggies, more water, less sugar. It's not rocket science. Just like someone said before, it just takes will power - you just have to WANT IT!!!

    But seriously, come and join us in the PT Health Club "Fitness Fridays" . . . we're open all week . . . we motivate each other to keep at it - living healthy, staying active . . . maybe that's what you need - a kick in the pants! LOL

    I often go on cleanses and eat as healthy as possible inbetween. Lots of veggies and fruits! I allow myself one bad thing" a day but rarely actually eat that bad thing. As long as I know the option is there, I'm usually good. When I eat healthy I feel so good about myself and happy --- give it a try, you'll love it.
    I've been BOO'd!
