Tipex   10 #1 Posted January 3, 2010 Hi all  After last years binge on food and drink, i thought i would start a thread and use myself as an experiment in weight loss.  Starting from 4/1/10 at 7:00am i will start a 2 week diet which i will use to help people wanting to shift those extra pounds quite quickly.  I will try and report here everyday on how i feel, excercise i've done, and the achievments i've made.  At the end of this experiment i hope to have feedback from other Sheffield Forum users and people interested in weight loss.  MODS: Is there anyway or anywhere we could make this sticky and support people who are trying to shift the pounds?

HeadingNorth   11 #4 Posted January 3, 2010 Why a two week diet ?  It's the sort of thing that is popular with the general public who want to shift weight fast. It's look at with despair by medical people and dieticians, who would rather weight lost at a sensible pace and kept off for good.

Tipex   10 #5 Posted January 3, 2010 (edited) Why a two week diet ?  This will give people a guideline on how the effects of this 'Diet' works. I will have mood swings, cravings, mental dullness,ect. In the 2nd week of this experiment, i should feel slightly sick when i think of chocolate.  When i come off it i will try and explain how my cravings have changed over the 2 week period.  Going straight back onto 'Bad Fats' will pile the weight back on, so the 3rd week i'll talk about what bit of fat i've put back in.  I will gladly talk to people in pm's or on the thread about the next 2 weeks.  About the 3rd week: The 3rd week has nothing to do with the experiment, It is the week i put different foods back into my diet after the experiment of the 2 weeks has finnished. It is important not to go straight back onto a diet i had before the 2 weeks started. Edited January 4, 2010 by Tipex Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Thats a good diet lydix btw. Would eat most of your carbs at dinner, but if you're like me you'll be chewing the carpet wanting to eat chocolate/sweets.  This diet should wave off cravings after the first week and detox your body.
