The Secret to Losing nearly a Stone in about Six Weeks.

Enough people have asked, so here is the diet plan:

Don't rush into it. Psych up and have a date set that you plan to start the diet.

Have a weigh in time, once a week and write down your weight.

Make high calorie snacks and baking and give them to other people to eat

What you are not allowed:

        Any real garbage: no full fat crisps, drinks, Sainsbury chocolate muffins, kipling apple pies, handfuls of cheddar cheese on everything, full fat milk, biscuits, chocolate – anything like that. Just don't buy it.

What you are allowed:

As much as you like or tea, coffee, fruit juice and diet juice.

Any fruit in any amount.

Any vegetables in any amount

Here's my usual daily eating:

Breakfast  - cup of tea and a bowl of cereal (My current favourite is full sugar Alpen) or wholemeal toast, two slices and jam.

Morning coffee – just a coffee.

Lunch – soup and a sandwich – but make an effort with the sandwich – stuff it full of whatever you like – add salad. (Remember, you are not going to be washing it down with an apple pie and a packet of crisps) Go easy on the mayo and cheese though.

Afternoon tea – just the tea  (and maybe a cereal bar or a wee biscuit if you are seeing stars through a lack of nourishment…) or a chopped apple and or a banana, or whatever.

Dinner – for the first week have microwave weight watchers dinners (eeked out by as many fruit and veg as you like). These help to get into your head what portion sizes should be. In other weeks, try to replicate the vibe of the weightwatchers meals, but if you make it yourself with real ingredients it'll taste nicer.

Mid-late evening – only if you are hungry

A snack is allowed e.g:

-         an avocado and mayonnaise

-         toast

-         cereal

-         diet crisps and diet juice
