What's diet would you recommend ?

I have piled on the pounds lately and really need to shift them, i used weight watchers years ago and went to the gym everyday but my circumstances have changed and can no longer afford weight loss groups and gym fees so im wondering if anyone can recommend a good diet that will help me loose weight and get back on track with healthy eating.

hello,

I wouldnt recommend any "diet" as such.  idont believe that any 'diet' is good and that ultimately they dont really work.

 I became a mum just over a year ago and at 5'2" weighed 11 stone..a bit of a porker! i now weigh 9st 13....so not at my ideal weight but getting there.

If you begin to investigate weight loss you will discover that there are so many people out there trying to sell you the answer..they all have it and promise it will work!!  it gets very very confusing...well it did for me.  I would suggest just to make it simple. 

Move more, eat less.  Be honest with yourself about what you are eating and how much activity you are doing. i know its difficult if you have a child or not much money, but it doesnt have to be expensive...there are any number of dvds for exercise (or dance) and plenty on fitness tv!. I would recommend paul mckennas i can make you thin...go to your local library and borrow it..its free!

i would love to know how you are getting on.

hey i hope you are not giving yourself a hard time just because you had a couple of bad days...be kind to yourself.  i know exactly how tough it is when your little one is not sleeping and would just live off cheese sandwiches!!

Hi Tina

All i have been dong so far is trying to get my 5 aday in and cutting out treats like choc and crisps ive stopped adding sugar to things and generally just trying to eat more healthy and choosing low fat options, I could do with some nice healthy recipes that i can cook for family meals maybe what we should do is when we find something thats good is post it on hear for everyone to see ? not sure if someone else has already done this.
