I think when people take the responsibilty on themselves and are determined to make changes, you will succeed but by using special products while you're dieting, what happens when you stop? Well done by the way and thank you!Heidihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12019188687429455091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9172360131558013821.post-28699955656717949092015-01-21T14:50:01.505+00:002015-01-21T14:50:01.505+00:00I enjoyed your article.

As someone who was always overweight it took going to a weightloss group to kickstart my 'journey' which helped me to gain self-esteem and address the other issues which were contributing. It helped me but I was shocked at how product-driven it was so I determined to do it my own way. Regular weigh-ins helped but I take credit for making, and sustaining my changes for myself. I've lost 3.5 stone and been at a healthy weight for more than a year.<br />So, in short, good point well made!<br />Sara (great blog btw)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9172360131558013821.post-8319295255982162652015-01-14T17:58:17.335+00:002015-01-14T17:58:17.335+00:00Thank you SSG. It's interesting, there is a T...Thank you SSG. It's interesting, there is a TV programme on at the moment talking about "the right diet for you". It started off with "80% of diets don't work" and then split the group of volunteers into only 3 groups and gave them three different types of diets "tailored" to them but these were all fairly well established diets rather than anything unique. For emotional eaters, they just recommended a group weightloss approach rather than anything properly working on the mind.<br /><br />I just didn't get it. All diets pretty much were variations on the three they suggested; low carb, 5/2, group weightloss so if one of those diets is suitable for 33% of the population, then why do 80% fail? It makes no sense. It was really disappointing after initially making some valid points.Heidihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12019188687429455091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9172360131558013821.post-58288191364121736002015-01-14T00:54:56.469+00:002015-01-14T00:54:56.469+00:00Thank you for your honest discussion about dieting...Thank you for your honest discussion about dieting, Heidi. Especially the advice about working on moods and emotions. <br /><br />I do agree with you but you are right, sometimes the truth is hard to hear or read.<br /><br />I do enjoy your blog and your recipes.<br /><br />SSG xxxSydney Shop Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05813953421175387706noreply@blogger.com
