I've reached desperation now and there is no going back - I MUST lose weight. I am 54, 5ft 4 and weigh 352 pounds.
I've lost 10lb this year on low carb but I went on two binges. I want to avoid that happening again.
I am looking for a diet plan that will work for me. Has anyone who has lost a substantial amount of weight posted all their daily food intake anywhere so I can copy it or at least get ideas? I'm willing to do ANYTHING so long as it's wholesome, tenable, maintainable and does not leave me hungry.
My current diet is what I call "cabbage-soup-meets Atkins". I make a huge cauldron of soup (cabbage, leeks, greens, capsicum, tomatoes, and chicken stock) and am allowed as much as I want all day as it's low calorie and low carb, too. I put 2 tbsp of double cream in each pint I drink - makes it palateable and adds calcium, but also adds 100 calories to each serving. I also have 100g to 200g of cooked meat three times a day for protein. And I have about 4 pints of tea a day, with cream not milk to save on carbs.
I am having about 40g carbs, 300g to 500g of protein and about 1600 calories a day.
Can anyone thing of a better diet than this, or one that will work faster?
Cheers
H.
