You could always have your legs amputated.

Seriously,I find that a vegetarian diet melts away the pounds. Just cut out the worst fat offenders,meat,cheese sugar ect,and eat lots of what you have left. You need'nt ever feel hungry,I lost 5 dress sizes in six months this way.

Wishing you lots of luck,Nina from "orrible Sheffield.

lucky you, you will enjoy it no matter what the weight. If you havent been before you must go to the national park and see the vocanic action. Just try cutting out on sweet things and fats and you'll lose a little but if you try to lose too much in such a short time you will probably end up with no energy

No sweet biscuits, no cakes, no chocolate, no lollies, no soft drink, no chips, no junk food, no butter, no fatty food. No added sugar.

Cut down on the size of your meals. Eat meat, fruit, vegetables, all the horrible healthy stuff.

Go for a gentle walk as much as you can every day.

You can lose a kilo a week doing this. So there's six of your kilo's gone.

By the way have you thought about talking to your doctor about it. There may be some medical advice or prescription which will help you achieve your weight loss. Don't be dazzled by the results achieved by the biggest loser brigade. Their weight loss is achieved under very artificial conditions and is usually not sustainable by the average person who has a life to live.

Take it slow and make sure you EAT. Deprive your body of nutrients and it stores fat. Whatever you start now, be prepared to continue with it after your excursion.

You will enjoy it, where in Lanzarote. Every time I have gone (and I am a stone overweight) I have felt relatively slim as the majority of people there seemed to be overweight. Try serving up your meals on a smaller plate.

Granny of 10 ,
i would try what Annina has said
a vegetarian diet , you should lose some weight with that,
if you want to snack in the afternoon or evening have an apple/pear
some sort of fruit or even some nuts as long as theyre not salted .
a handful of sultanas /currants
wish you luck .. you can do it ..
