    Actual loss of body fat, about 6 pounds sensibly if you’re very diligent

    Much more possible through dehydration but that’s not sensible

    15kg in 2 weeks.

    I did have dysentery*** and was knocking on the gates at one point.

    ***Not a sensible diet plan.

    No we are going to America where I can get jeans I like for really cheap. I just don’t want to have to buy fat sizes 🙂

    3-4kg last week due to a milder version of what bigblackshed had. I had an intolerance to food…

    Gastroenteritis for the last week has helped me shift some weight, not recommended.

    So that’ll be the iDave diet added to the list of fad diets that dont work. Meanwhile my exercise loads and eat a sensible normal diet has seen me got from 15 stone to 11 stone and keep it off. Surprising that.

    For jeans?

    Any way multichoice answer:

    A You are propellerly committed to long term change and you can start loosing weight at a sensible rate now. Buy the jeans in a suitable size and they should fit s in a month or so

    B Start starving yourself now. Arrive America and squeeze into jeans on first day and buy loads. Generally trough out in America as the portions are huge, your on holiday and your body has just left a famine. Return from holiday and place jeans in draw and never have to worry about them wearing out…

    It worked within the parameters that iDave presented it, which was rapid weight loss as a short term aim – such as in preparation for a sporting event. It was a fairly draconian short term eating plan that you could only really sustain for a finite time because it basically condemns you to only eating food you’ve prepared yourself (it was surprising how many people on the first idave threads couldn’t cook but hadn’t really realised). It was also a diet which took for granted the fact that you exercise already because his clients are sportspeople. So if Mols is back to his pre-diet weight that may be because he’s not dieting, not the diet not working.

    You keep telling yourself that.

    I can if I like. I’ve never been on a diet though. I found the threads interesting because of the recipes that cropped up and the culinary challenge it creates – it set some interesting parameters to cook within, some of which have become a bit of household staple now.

    A top tip for this would be to eat less and move more, probably.

    You could lose 3kg, then buy jeans which will be too small for you by the end of August.

    It didn’t work, long term, for molgrips, but that’s because he’s a precious flower or something 😉

    It’s because it’s a diet not a lifestyle change.

    Eat (insert fad food item) and nothing else = drop a load of weight. Return to “normal” and put it all back on.

    Eat sensibly and exercise moderately and you will drop some weight and become fitter. To drop more weight, either eat less or move more.

    There is a whole load of anomollies surrounding eat less / move more, that will give differing results for different people. Some are sustainable, some aren’t.

    I can offer shed based liposuction with a rust knife and an industrial vacuum if you’re desparate. PayPal Gift and no questions. 😉

    Have you considered the Class A Drugs Diet? Not only effective, but bloody good fun too!

    The only downside is the expense.

    It can get better at it though, like most things it can be trained and improved.

    Aww, thanks 🙂

    It works unless you end up using more carb than you can eat in low-carb form. Which for me was quite easy.

    We ain’t all the same inside.

    I’m not sure mine can

    Well its at a much lower rate than many. We had a few cycle touring holidays when we couldn’t quite get the righy. That split the 4 of us into 2 pairs. The fat metabolisers were out of site…
