I’ve just recently started a new job and one of my colleagues lent me his book about this diet. I’ve read it and it’s something I’d like to try – but I have concerns that I won’t like any of the food and therefor won’t be able to stick to the diet!
I love my carbs, I recently joined slimming world and was pleased that Pasta is a free food – but after a 4.5lb loss on my first week all I’ve done is gained so that’s clearly not working for me. And I started losing the will to keep going as I wasn’t losing so my motivation had gone.
I’m never really going to have an ideal 8-week slot to do this so I’ll just have to persevere through regular life plans (as I’m sure many others do)
I’m going to wait a few weeks before I start so I can be prepared, mentally as well as physically. With having two children (11 & 1) and a slim partner, I will mostly be cooking for myself so that means cooking 2/3 different meals a day. My daughter is a bit on the larger side so I’m hoping she will share some meals with me without me needed to tell her she could do with losing some weight (I don’t want to affect her confidence in any way)
I am not a morning person and I often skip breakfast because I just can’t stomach it. Always been told that’s bad for me but I can’t help it.
So I guess in a long winded way, what I’m trying to say is that I’d appreciate any help, tips, support and recipes you can all offer.
