Diets? How many can you list??

[OOnion]

Some of us older one's have been remembering the diets we have done over the years.... My fav has been 'Slimming watchers cambridge lighter cabbage soup life' with a bit of rosemary conolly on orlistat, and those really old ones of us must have had the pleasure of a bit of tenulate dospan on the side!'

Just wondered how many diets we could name between us all?!

I challenge you all??

First one I started was at a slimming club called Slimming Magazine. It was essentially calories counting. Worse thing I started at age 17 years. I was about 13 stone but just went up every year after that as I became more obsessed with food as I went.
I remember an older lady (probs my age now lol) weighing in at 18 stone and me thinking my god no way will I ever get that size.

Here I am now after losing 4 stone from my highest weight of 22, weighing in at 18 exactly lol

Well the first ever was Weight Watchers at 14 - didn't need to lose any weight but my Mam was doing it so I joined in and gained weight as soon as I finished and been dieting ever since. After that:
Slim Fast
Cambridge
Cabbage Soup
Rosemary Connelly
Orlistat
Reductil
Special K
Grapefruit
Atkins (my most successful - lost 3 stone for my wedding)
Magnesium - high levels of vitamin supposed to give you a daily enema (horrendous)
And my personal favourite lemon juice and hot water plus lettuce - gave myself IBS with that one x

Re the use of Dospan, am I the only one that they never had the slitest effect on, every one else I knew that had been on them all lost massive amounts of weight but talked of being able to stay on the go for 24 hours. When I took them I had zero effect and didn't loose a pound.
