SlimUK,

I started the diet at the end of last August and the weight just seemed to melt off of me and by Christmas I was 25 lb. lighter. So I would say it would be possible to loose 2 lb. per week.

I do exercise and have done so for years. We moved to Montreal almost 2 years ago and bought a house with a pool. so in the summer I was swimminging 70 laps per day. In the fall I started walking every day and over the winter I have been doing hundreds of sit-ups and working our with weights. I don't know if the exercise helped alot, but for my own peace of mind, I think it is important.

Too bad about the beer, I still enjoy a glass of red wine after dinner.

Cheers, Skiwi
