Hi everyone, I'm looking to lose about 5-6 kg (so about 1 stone) in the next couple of months. Say by the end of the school year in July.
Half of those kilos were gained in the past 2-3 months, by eating too much bread/pasta/cheese and not being physically active at all. Now, I don't want to count calories and/or have fasting days, so I thought low carb is the way to go - as that's my main sin, carbs.
Dukan and low GI seem interesting, with Dukan being more aggressive? Any other suggestions? And I'm not willing to pay for slimming products or special diet plans... I can reduce quantities and change what I eat, hopefully as a lifestyle change.
Also the plan is to go back to running and/or swimming at least 2-3 times a week. I stopped doing that a long time ago. Right now my only 'exercise' is walking 10-min to the train station and taking stairs at work instead of the lift.
Any thoughts? Many thanks!
