Is anyone doing the Mediterranean Diet?

  • Hi, I was just wondering if anyone out there is doing the med diet and how sucessful you have been? I am currently doing the slimming world diet which has some of the same unlimited food like pulses, potatoes, pasta etc. However this has really good reviews and alot of additional health benifits aside from weight loss. How much has anyone lost on this?
  • Sorry, I've never heard of it! I try to avoid any eating plan when they tell you that you can eat as much as you want of something. Conceptually I find unlimited portion sizes hard to get my head round, and I always worry I'll start eating unrestrainedly and never have the willpower to stop ever again!

    Good luck with it if you try it!

  • Being of Italian desent, I can honestly say it was the blummin' "mediterrainian diet" that made me fat in the first place!!!!

  • just a word of warning "unlimited foods" doesn't mean unlimited. the bottom line is if you eat more than you burn off you put on weight
