Im new here just thought i would introduce myself.Im 29 years old and have 4 children.I really want to get back into shape and lose a few stone.Ive just completly let myself go and i think its about time i fixed this!!Im not sure what kinda diet to go on,any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Dear vickster:
Welcome! I was a new girl here just a few weeks ago. My daughters are grown now. I am concentrating on health-meaning that I cut out most of the "junk foods" and I am losing my initial 20 pound goal very quickly due to that!
My younger daughter shed another 50 lbs over the last year by following the highly Sensitive diet from a website called "The Captain's Lady". It does ask you to limit processed foods but she is just 24 pounds from the high end of her normal weight range. She then switched to a hypoglycemic diet which she says is mainly the same but is easier to follow, allowing a few more proteins.
Another great one is the DASH diet, which is for hypertense folk but still a good diet to lose on. Try to make it a lifestyle change and it will go easier and be easier to maintain. It took me years of "dieting" and a nutrition course to figure it all out!
Best wishes from PA, stateside
