Paul, the Atkins diet really does work, or you could try the slightly healthier South Beach diet, also works. The weight does drop off but as soon as your old eating habits return, so does the weight! Jack x

I think you'd need to survive on water alone to achieve that target weight loss...... and you would then be in no fit state to enjoy your holiday. Try drinking water before a meal to help fill you though.

My husband and I tried a combining diet, but not to lose weight, the result was we were losing weight so fast, we had to stop!!, couldn't afford to lose anymore. This involves eating protein and carbohydrates at different meals, and allow 4 hours for protein to digest, 3 hours for carbs to digest, fruit takes about half an hour. Fruit and veg (not potatoes) are neutral can be eaten with either protein or carbs. Unsalted nuts (not peanuts) are also neutral. We ate fruit before each meal, Had a main meal with plenty of veg (no potatoes), although sweet potatoes belong to squash family so not the same. If eating a salad you could have a jacket potato, bread, but no meat, fish, cheese, or whole eggs, but can eat egg yolk. Or if you want salad with meat fish etc, then no potato or bread. Of course you will need to cut out cakes, biscuits, crisps, and any obviously fattening things too. If you want any more help, contact me. Val

best two ways I've found are; 1. stress. lost half a stone in a week. 2. Glandular Fever. lost a stone in 3 weeks wouldn't recommend them though.

Try eating only food with low glycemic index (GI) value - easy to stick to and weight falls off!!
