Throwing the towel in!

Just thought I'd write an update on this blog as I gave up the diet on day 6. Basically I was just feeling rougher and rougher as the days went by and by the Saturday I had only lost 1lb and felt I had done better on more traditional diets by that point so my summation was it wasn't worth all the hassle after all. Shame as I tend to give most diets a two week period to see results, but then most diets don't make you feel like you've got a case of flu for the first week so it's worth bearing in mind if you ever attempt this particular one. I do suffer from headaches in general and am on medication to combat them, however this diet even caused that to stop working and I felt really bad for the tail end of it. I'm happy that I gave it a shot and I would recommend it to anyone who feels that they've reached the end of the line with other diets they've tried. It doesn't have to cost a lot of money to go on it. Sure the book wibbles on a bit about buying organic meat etc but I only did this when it was on offer or on the rare occasion it was the same price as non-organic. We all know it's good for us but it doesn't suit everyone's budget, certainly not mine! To sum up, this diet did not work for me but give it a go as we are all different and I do know others who have succeeded, good luck!
