800 calories??? Wow - that sounds daunting!

It's certainly not easy but it has been very effective at bringing my fasting blood test right down (so far). I keep telling myself to stop being a wimp and that I can do anything just for 8 weeks... LOL.

In fact according to the book it isn't necessarily for 8 weeks, it's until I find my own 'Personal Fat Threshold' below which (hopefully) my visceral fat from around my liver and pancreas reduce enough that they start working properly. That's the theory anyway. We'll see. Hmmmm

I quite like yoghurt but I don't really understand a need for it apart from when it's applied(!) for thrush or when used as a probiotic.

Well, I'll follow your progress with interest, as it sounds as if it's something I may need to resort to! I imagine my liver and pancreas are waving white flags... :-(
