Calorie counting works best for me, reliable, flexible and free.

Overall I count calories but within that I restrict my carbs a little and up my protein.

I'm carb counting and portion control. Carbs really make me balloon so this works well for me.

I'm also counting cals... I've worked out I should be taking in around 1200 -1250 cals a day and I can have pretty much anything I like as long as I account for it.. It makes me make better choices and I am having alot of fresh veg and salad along with my meals as it helps bulk it all out and fill me up.. but I can also have a little of the bad stuff too.. and just count it and cut back in other meals/areas or do more excercise... it's free to do and you can find the cal content of basicly everything online.. and I have alot of basic cals on my blog if you wanna take a look. Good luck

Hi all, I have just joined 3FC forum, about 15mins ago and I'm following the South Beach diet. Tried it a few years ago should have stayed on but strayed instead so now I'm back. Good to see a UK section. Good Luck to me and everyone else.

I follow Eat Stop Eat plan. Or Intermittent Fasting. I love to eat big meals, so this has worked for me over the course of the last 9 months.

I'm doing slimming world. the meetings arent in my area, but i got the books from a friend and feel that its the right plan for me. I've done them all tbh, but this is the first one i've tried that makes sense.

I do low carb, low calorie, low fat & HIGH protein = Ideal Protein. I use all alternatives though Works for me! Lost 8lbs in 2 weeks AND almost 3 pants sizes! Can't argue with those results

I just eat healthy 95% of the time and 5% of the time treat myself, to make it realistic. I don't count or restrict anything, but I try to make good choices.

A major part of my success this time around is exercise though, it's really helping me to stay on track

Good luck whichever plan you choose

I'm doing Slimming World extra easy plan because it's so easy lol

It just works for me and means I don't have to cook separate meals for my family as everyone just eats it.

I'm calorie counting and keeping my carbs under 100 grams per day.
