I have justed started a journey to become half the man I am. I need to
lose about 100kg or 220lb to get to normal weight. I have started a web
page to allow people to follow my progress and give me support and
tips. I have started by beginning a low carb diet, one week in I feel
great, never hungry and have lost 4.2kg or 9lb with very little
exercise. I do plan to exercise more. If you want to check it out and
follow my progress go to www.halfthemaniam.com.

If you don't think you can stick to a low carb diet there is always Weight
Watcher but that runs around $40 a month. Or you can get all the literature
and things you need there, and not go to the meetings after the first month
or so.

Hello,

Yeah I was thinking about weight watchers. I like the idea of their no
count plan. I just find I get real hungry if I am limited or if I know
I can't have more. I'll seriously consider it when I can't stand what
I'm doing. But things are OK now, I never feel hungry and I am losing
weight so it is good.

They have you count "points" instead of calories.

I just find I get real hungry if I am limited or if I know
I can't have more.

You wont get too hungry on WW. Even on low-carb you can't always eat all
you want, or you wont lose any weight.

I'll seriously consider it when I can't stand what
I'm doing. But things are OK now, I never feel hungry and I am losing
weight so it is good.

Then stick with it! :o)

Classic spam artist with his hand puppet.

Why do these people always assume that we're stupid? Don't they
realize that the formula is always the same with these spammers?

1. X, who has never posted before, asks a seemingly innocent question
2. Handpuppet (also never seen before) answers the question with
'hmm, if it doesn't work for you, maybe you could try XYZ product,
it's only $xx. '

DUH!

I don't know what you're talking about.

1. What innocent question did I ask?
2. I don't have a clue who my hand puppet is supposed to be.

I assume you are stupid, but no one else.

I don't know that someone shilling for Weight Watchers would advocate
going to one meeting to get the literature & stuff, then bailing. WW
likes a longer-term customer...
