[QUOTE="Chook, post: 1058234, member: 24561"] [FONT=Arial]Oh I have. I am a Rosemary Conley, Slimming World and Weight Watchers failure of many years standing. My first ever diet was age 19; I just wanted to get in to a size 8 wedding dress - I needed to lose maybe a half a stone. I went to a diet class and was put on 800 calorie (weekdays) 1000 calories (weekends) ultra low fat/high carb diet. I did manage to fit in to my wedding dress okay and then almost immediately put on a stone - everyone said it was wedded bliss that slammed it on - but I think that the diet had somehow screwed with my metabolism and I've been low fat high carb dieting pretty much ever since just trying not to put any more on but without success. I did once manage to get down to a size 8 again in my 30s - I existed on strong black coffee and cigarettes (weekdays) and low fat high carb (weekends) and I really made myself ill. Last summer I was at my biggest (with BG in the high 20s / low 30s) then discovered the twin miracles that are IF and LCHF and I've since lost just over 4 st but to be a healthy weight for my height (and age) I need to lose another 2 st. 4lbs.[/FONT] [/QUOTE]
