Any other gransnetters out there that are hoping to lose weight this year? I have definately gained some 'middle age spread' over the last year and have decided to do something about it before nothing in my wardrobe fits me any more! I have just started the 5-2 diet and want to know if any of you has tried this way of dieting before, and if so, was it a success? If you have managed to lose weight on this or any other diet could you let us all know how it went, along with any tips that you would like to pass on, and maybe any local weight loss clubs that you could recommend. smile

Apparently I'm not the only Gransnetter who is trying/has tried this type of diet. There is an article on the main Gransnet site about this very subject. From a personal point of view, this type of dieting is very slow going indeed but am on the right track, though not lost as much weight as I would have liked up to now. putting link to article in case anybody wants to take a look.
