Ayone tried the cabbage diet??

Do you know if it actually works?

Ive got my wedding in less than 6 months and really need to lose a stone Im 10 stone 3 atm, Im really crappy about what to eat please advise me:kiss: on what has helped you

Yes. It wasn't pretty. I stank of cabbage constantly, I couldn't stop farting and at one point contemplated eating wood chippings because I was so hungry but could not contemplate another bowl of bloody soup. I lasted 5 days, lost 6lbs, 4lbs of which went straight back on the next day when I began eating normally again.

Honestly, quick fixes don't help at all hun. If you want to loose a stone in 6 months you could easily do it following something like Weight Watchers, Slimming World or low carb, there are lots of different threads about each in the diet forum. Plus exercise is a must too.

I've personally lost weight most successfully on WW and SW. I prefer SW now as it's less restrictive in my eyes.

My Mum did it and not sure how much she lost, but I do know that it gave her really bad wind!

yes many moons ago - and nooooooooooooo you will stink and it will all go back on

Start WW/SW and you can easily lose 1 stone in 6 months by eating well

Or a quick fix is celebrity slim (but its the usual quick fix diet - it will all go back on)

Thank you so much - ok I will have a look at the other threads :kiss:

Trust me you do NOT want to be a farty bride:no::no::lol:

Try Extra Easy on Slimming World, I did it last year (have just started again) and was uber good and lost 15lb in 6 weeks! It can be done!

I wouldn't bother with something like that if you've got six months to go. If you're 10stones now how much do you actually want to lose? Even if it's a couple of stones you could lose that in three months without doing anything drastic. Join a slimming club instead. You'll be so hungry after just a few days on CS (or anything very low calorie that's similar) that you'll pig out and put all the weight back on in 24 hours. Then you're back at square one again.

If I were in your sitch (hactually I was!) I'd cut the carbs and up the water about two weeks beforehand, and in the meantime, just try and curb the bad stuff as much as you can. Don't do the cabbage soup diet, you will be trumping your way up the aisle, and that won't be pretty.

But if you DO lose a stone, how will that affect the fit of your dress?

I had to diet my way into mine, and I did it! I think the pressure of having a dress that initially didn't fit (3 months beforehand!) was enough of an incentive. I didn't want to be walking down the aisle in my undies!

You can do it if you want to tho :nod:
