Weight loss

[Tashatori]

Hi everyone I have lost 1st and 6lb in 34 days Drs just about to put me on some weight loss meds to help aid with the weight loss as I'm now currently 12st 13lb but to be a healthy weight for my height I need to lose a further 4st 2lb any other suggestions as can only be on current diet no longer than 12 weeks as takes a toll on your body as only eat salad and veg and 1500ml milk I've stuck too it and obviously lost some weight but others who are on it have lost a considerable amount more than myself In the same amount of time so would be greatful for any more suggestions xx

Hello Tashatori

I’m glad you told us your GP was monitoring your weight loss as the way you are eating sounds quite extreme. Very low calorie diets work for some, so good luck, but Im afraid I couldn’t cope eating so little. 😕

Are you receiving any advice from a dietician as well as your GP? You mention others have lost a lot more weight than you, but 20lbs in 5 weeks is a very rapid weight loss.

I don’t mean to sound negative, we all have our own ways of doing things, but please take care of yourself.

Best wishes

Anna

Hello Tashatori I agree with Anna61 and would advise you to check with your doctor that you are ok on this diet. Well done for such a great weight loss might be worth looking into a less extreme diet because they can also lead to successful weight loss. Some great ideas on this site and all the best.
