[QUOTE="viviennem, post: 178386, member: 31282"] [b]Re: Viv's Diet[/b] Diadeb, it's more that you mustn't try to exclude fat than that you should add it. A lot of the early publicity about the diet gave the idea that it was all fat - enormous pieces of cheese, etc - whereas I found I'd never eaten so many vegetables in my life! Shymandy, the first time I did it, after being on a low-fat/high-carb diet for years, I lost 14lb in the first two weeks. Quite a bit of that was water, as it is with any diet, but the results gave me so much incentive that it was easy to keep going. I lost 50lb in 6 months. I'm finding it more difficult this time, but I'm trying to stick to it - and I'm sure it will get easier as the weather gets better! Best of luck with it - and let us know how you go on. :D Viv :) [/QUOTE]
