my most successful diet came when I ate the MOST.

i ate almost constantly, snacking and big meals, did 2 hours exercise a day.

when i ate less I found I put on weight as well :0

must be the metabolism, goes against everything you read pretty much.

you called claim the g flux diet supports eating more, but it coincides with doing more exercise, the truth is, i did the same amount of exercise, ate 3 times more, and dropped weight more with the latter.

go figure.

I've lost over 3 stone since June last year, all I've done is walk more (alot more - up to 2 hours a day) reduce sugar in coffee/tea, eat MORE veg, drink flavoured water instead of fizzy juice, and reduced the crap (choc, biscuits etc).
Still have 3 meals a day, I still snack but the weight dropped off.

Eat 1,200 calories a day. You'll lose 1-2lbs a week. Sorted.

Try doing it without calorie counting and you'll probably fail.

your the 2nd person i have heard say something like that angela, that you should eat all throughout the day.

true. diets don't exist. eat what you want, when you want. thats what i do. just make sure you exercise.

there is always an early door plateua so the fact youve not dropped weight over the first month isn't a massive concern. keep going. u must feel healthier?

You're meant to eat something every 2-3 hours even if it's just a snack to increase metabolism.

1,200 calories a day! honestly not the way forward.

i trebled that to around 3,000 a day, sometimes more, and lost more weight doing the same exercise.

limiting yourself to 1,200 calories a day just isnt possible (okay it is, i did it for a period of 3 months) but it just isnt worth it.

food is a very important part of my life, i love it, and was estatic to find on a 3,000+ (more than RDA) I lost more weight doing the same amount of exercise.

i think its to do with metabolism and bowel movements.

my body works better with constant nourishment, and as such i lost more weight that way. i think your body type may be similar.

yeah there must be something to that diet, ive been a 32 inch waist all my adult life and i eat about 4-5000 calories a day (so the other half loves to remind me).

makes a difference if you dont eat rubbish, dont think ive had a bag of crips in the past 15 years, only really eat chocolate about christmas, not because i want to lose weight but because they taste like boiled baby**s and make me feel tired

i dont normally walk, the only exercise i normally get is playing football with a few mates on a sunday(and work)
so i thought an extra 5 hours worth of walking a week, over 3 weeks would have at least a small result..

i am really enjoying walking(its only cos car has broken) I did think i felt better until i stepped on the scales for the first time today since i started :(

The eating regular thing is ideal but you have to be really anal about it. A pro bodybuilder, for example, will eat may 8-12 meals a day. Seriously, every hour they'd have some food. It keeps your metabolism high and so you burn more overall. It's also why doing exercise first thing in the morning helps as it fires up your metabolism and then it stays higher for the next 3-4 hours so you burn more while doing fa.

muzza, dont be downbeat, keep doing it, it will drop off. we've long discussed and studied this. i'm a big believer that mass will often be put on in the early stages as certain body types will often bring stored dangerous body fats to the exterior of your body, i cant remember what this process is called. often this will lead to the body type gaining weight and feeling fatter. but thats just the top of the hill. keep up the work and this dangerous fat will fall off your body. i implore you to carry on.
