A lot will depend on where you are starting from, what your diet is like right now, how much you weigh, how active you are, and of course how closely you follow the plans!

The one thing we can promise you is that you will lose weight following the 7-day GL plan. You can expect to lose between 2lb and 5lb in the first week, more if you’ve got a lot of weight to lose. Unlike other diets, the difference is that if you keep to a reasonably low-GL diet you’ll keep the weight off. If you just want to lose a few pounds then a week or two following the plan may be all you need. However, most people feel so well on the plans that they carry on just for the many health and emotional benefits (see research in Chapter 13).

For those of you who have more weight to lose it will take a little longer, but you will get there, just take it seven days at a time. Whatever your goals, we – and the many wonderful Diet Freedom Fighters – are here to help and support you. Check out our website to help keep you going.

You can use the plans for as long as you like. They are nutritionally balanced; there are no food groups you have to avoid; and above all you won’t be hungry. Once you have got the hang of things it becomes second nature, but to start with we really recommend you take it in seven-day steps, building on your success as each week passes.

When you reach your goal we’ve also given you lots more help to maintain it (see Chapter 4).
