HI all,
I am new to message boards, but have come to this one because i wnat to 'shout it from the roof tops' when it comes to a brilliant way to lose pregnancy weight. After using weight watchers twice in the last five years (pre and between pregnancies) I can not tell enough people about the 'Food Doctor Every Day Diet'. I am eating the way i have always wanted to, and even though i'm still feeding (my baby is only 5.5 months) i have nearly lost all the weight (will be 10 killos in all). It's only been 2.5 months as well. it took a year of hard slog on weight watchers with my two year old. My skin is great and i feel fantastic - well, perhpas some more sleep has played a role in that too! anyway, please please please have a look at it. I could even say that it's been life changing.

SO is this diet in a book? Miaabi there are plenty of good GI diet books I am following the Helen Foster one at the moment and it is fabulous! NO sugar cravings and very little hunger alongside really tasty meals whihc even my husband likes. I love the snacks as well as I am a great snacker.

You are right it is the best diet I have ever followed and I hope my results are as good as yours as I have only been doing it a week!

Glitterfairy, what is the name of the Helen Foster one. Where to buy and how much is it?

glitterfairy · 14/05/2005 18:41

Yes it does vegetarian recipes and a 14 day vegetarian weight loss plan. It is called the Good Carb Diet Plan by Helen Foster and is really really good!

Hi all,
nice to see that people are as intersted as me. It is a diet book glitterfairy (that's a great name by the way), but it does not feel like it. it really feels like a good lesson in nutrition and over all diet. have just had a weekend away and as a firend of mine puts it, will be suffering from a 'food hangover' tomorrow. the 'food doctor' has vegi dishes and i think you could substitute tofu to things. he also uses tofu as a protein, often so well disguised that those who don't like it, would neve know it was there.
