I've been a yo-yo with weight gain all my life and think this diet is the one to fix it. I'm a sceptical person by nature, and the family baulked at being dragged along with me, but we're all feeling better. My normally morose husband is actually smiling and cracking the odd joke, and my 10 year old son (who adheres only at tea time really) has lost the dark circles under his eyes. We've all lost weight. I feel heaps better, no headaches, heartburn, insomnia, loads more energy and less aches and pains. A friend with chronic bronchitis and a diabetic has also been on it and her health has improved so dramatically it's almost a miracle. 1st three weeks are a bit drastic, but well worth sticking to it, I don't think anyone loses. I also appreciate the recipes, which are simple, relatively cheap, very tasty and quick to make as I hate cooking.
