Stillman 2010 Indiah's Blog

I am attempting to journal the journey from fat to fit.

I am starting on Feb 12 2010. I am not sure what possessed me to try this but I am so tired of being overweight..... we shall see how it all goes!

I started today by researching everything I could find on the web about Stillman's Diet.

Observations:

1) it is low carb
2) it is low calorie
3) it is restricive in food choices
4) it requires resolve to follow it
5) it will make weight loss fast

Questions:

1)Once the weight is lost will it stay off?

Conclusions:

1) I have been unable to find any blogs to tell me if this is the case. SO I will experiment with myself as the guinea pig!

Medical Considerations:

I am hypoglycemic
I am pre diabetic
I have high cholesterol
I am clincially moribidly obese (BMI over 30+)
I have IBS, GERD, and other GI problems

Personal Considerations:

I have been on every diet known to man:

sugar free/fat free
Weight Watchers 4 X's
Jenny Craig
Diet centre
Raw Food
No food (fasting)
Slow Food
LA Weight Loss
Grapefruit Diet
Cabbage Soup Diet
Slimfast
Atkins
Kekwick
Hcg
And another one whose name I forget...

Don't get me wrong,I have lost weight on various plans but then I gained it all back....

I have failed before....something inside me sabatoges my best efforts and I end up back where I started and then some.

What will make this time different????

I am tired of being fat,unhealthy and uncomfortable in my own skin.

I am hoping the blog will help!
