Cabbage soup diet

My wife has tried the cabbage one a few times and also the atkins ect...
the cabbage one is good for fast weight loss.. but the only problems with diets is the faster you lose it you have to be careful not too put it back on... the cabbage one is actually one recommended by hospitals for people who cant undergo surgery due to weight

I could go on and go into the saga of the exercise regime but i aint one for that .. so if you feel a bit plump the gabbage and the atkins ok.... be careful on atkins and drink plenty of water

 

All ive done is cut back on the amounts and starting eating something in the morning ,i never ate a breakie for years and would only have a dinner on a dailly basis ,and some crisps and some * later ,but im now eating a yogurt and a pineapple [not a hole one] every morning ,and then dinner ,and about 6 full glasses of water everyday ,im just short of losing 2 stone ,but eat what you want angie ,just less and have plenty of water .

 

A couple of years ago I was boozing and eating junk over Christmas, so I bought a book on macrobiotics in order to detox. All I can say is, what a load of *. Barley soup, which was just barley and hot water. Pure boufing.

I fired the book in the bin and went and got a burger. Now I exercise about 6 days a week at the gym and at home and am as fit as a boxer.

 

I wish I had the way and the means to accept this challenge, I am 65 years old and think the same as you, that I am the fittest man here.
I might just have the edge as I have been looking after myself a bit longer.

 

Hi Angie :bbpd:
I think the best I have heard here has come from Kennydal. If you done this and could run around the block a few times every day you would have no more problems.

 

im too impatient, i want to lose weight now, and thenil go for the "healthy eating and fitness" thing

i just had a raw carrot for breakfast how bizarre

today i can have all the veg i want plus soup and tonight i get to a have a baked potato with butter!! how exciting eh?

 

Im not on a diet ive just cut down and stop eating * and water is a great source for breaking down unwanted fat etc ,but you watch what youre doing like losing it to quick it can make you unwell and feel weak ,im losing 2-3 pounds a week and i started that about 9-10 weeks back im happy at that ,good luck angie .

 

I have to lose about 10 kilos till April but rather gonna move my lazy * than being on diet.

But fingers crosed for You Angie

I hate winter - always look and behave like a bear during cold months...

 

diets are alot of *, your body weight fluctuates in lbs all the time(im sure there will be an abundance of replys saying "i dont it, my pal done it, it works")

set meals, set times, 3 times a day, decent breakfast, lunch and dinner all before 7pm......regular exersize 3 x times a week (although you can get away with 2) is all you need

regular food, regular exersize thats all

 

Well Angie, I'm starting back to the gym tonight for the first time since before the Xmas holidays. The girlfriend's been abroad since then and like most, I went on a booze/food binge, putting on around a stone! I'm going over to visit her on the 27th of this month, so I have a little under two weeks to get my lazy * into some sort of shape, or I'll be sleeping with the dog (the family pet, not her, before any of you smartarses start :icon_mrgreen. I'll be hitting it every night until I leave and I'm cutting out all * food, but still eating normal, average-sized meals. I'll let you know how I get on. I'm weighing in at 12 stone 10 lbs at present. I'll keep you updated.

 

good luck!! im sure she would still love you anyway

 

i dont think any diet works guys....unless you are on it forever, otherwise the weight goes straight back on after you start eating normally again. The only way to lose weight and keep it off is too eat less and excercise more.

 

your on a diet until you lose the amount of weight you want, then you maintain that weight by eating a healthy and staple diet and excercise, i cannot exercise at the moment, and the weight has gone on in 2 months due to stopping smoking and steroids, and i would like it to come off pronto so i can get back to normal, i have no patience to wait aroung for 2 pounds a week when i could lose ten doing it this way, a wee kick start

 

*, you must be irritated as * now having to explain that after every other post

 

tell me about it

 

well i just had a baked potato and a bit of flora light!! i have never been so happy to have carbs ever, and now im stuffed, totally stuffed full, mon the weight loss!!!

 

Bingo. There's no pint in quick-fixes etc.
BTW, the first thing you lose when you diet is not fat but muscle. As this is 3x heavier that fat, people think their losing lots of weight when their not really.

 

i couldnt care if im losing ten pounds of my fat or muscle i just want to get my * into my skinny jeans without jumping off the bed and using a coathanger looped through the zip to do them up and not have a 20 min struggle to get them off

 

i lost 8 pounds in the last week :icon_mrgreen:....i am most happy, now just healthy eating and hopefully another 3 pounds next week
