Hi EveryoneSo, this is my story. About 5 years ago, I was 14 and a half stone and lost 2 stone with Weightwatchers, in about 5 months. Since then, I've hovered anywhere between 12st4lb-13stone. At the beginning of this year I was 12st 7lb and went on a big diet-loss drive by writing down everything I ate and adding up all the calories (it became very boring very quickly.) I got down to 11st11lb in just 4 weeks, but have stayed there ever since, despite remaining on 1200 calories per day! Since reading Zoe's advice, I know the calorie deficit theory is massively flawed. I love food - real food - and love cooking so am really looking for something genuinely life-changing, something that will enable me to be slim and healthy forever. I've upped the exercise recently and have significantly increased my muscle mass - which I like. At a size 12 with an hourglass shape, I wouldn't call myself fat - with size 8 feet and big muscles I do think I can genuinely say I am big framed, but I know I could be slimmer. I think the Harcombe Diet is what's needed to shunt me off this plateau. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
