Ive lost just over a stone in the last 5 weeks, this is how I have done it:
BEFORE
Breakfast - coissant with ham and cheese and a red bull
Dinner - pub lunch / fish and chips / mcdonalds - with a dessert
Evening meal - pub lunch / fish and chips / mcdonalds - with a dessert
Snacks - typically 1 chocolate bar, 1 small bag of sweets such as skittles
NOW
Breakfast - cranberry juice and an apple
Dinner - pub lunch / fish and chips / mcdonalds - NO dessert and smaller portions than before
Evening meal - 375ml of fresh fruit smoothy
Snacks - apples
EXERCISE
Before - None
Now - Walk 5-6 miles a day
RESULT:
Was 15 stone 9 just under 5 weeks ago
am 14 stone 7 now
I reckon I have dropped my calorie intake from probably 4000 average before to 2000 average now, and the walking equates to about 500 calories a day burnt off in addition to just normal daily life, so im effectively about 2500 calories down on what I was, 2500 is meant to equate to about 2/3 of a lb of fat, and thats not far off the rate that I have been losing it, as Ive only been on the diet 5 days a week I still eat more or less the same as I was before at weekends, so Ive lost 16lbs in 22 days of actually dieting I reckon.
