Made a slight mistake,and joined Fat Secret ( in English) and just found out there is a Dutch branch/variety. Can't switch now it seems because my e- mail is in use here. Not a big problem but the Dutch site would be more convenient because of foodstuffs and products available in the Netherlands. Here I often have to 'translate'to something close or hopefully similar. No big deal,stuck to a very rigorous diet for 17 days now and lost about 8 kg. Without too much troubles as far as cravings are concerned so I virtually lived cheat free, with the exception of one Twix which I discovered in my backpack and was left there from a little trip 3 weeks ago. Not following my diet at all which was based on 2600 kcal a day, but tried to stick to 1000 up to 1200 to get the hard part over as quickly as possible. First days were indeed hard with a loudly protesting stomach, right now it is a doddle, so let's see how long I can keep this up without cracking. Great plus so far is that I have no more trouble with acid re-flux which had bothered me off and on for a few years now. Regained control of 3 pants I had stowed away at the far end of the clothes cabinet and they do fit me now. This encouraged me to get another 8 out of the attic and try them on, no luck there yet, but a few were close. So I've decided to pack them in a bag with the 'almosts' right at the top and the ones once considered 'no way' right at the bottom. I keep those nearby and at hand, next try will be one month into my diet. Let's see if I can dig out a welcome Christmas present by then.
