Diet and Dieting, Weight Loss or Shedding Weight | People asked me recently, "have you lost weight Bruce?" "Yes, I have", I said with delight. Why did I want to lose it? It was because I had 'found' it lurking around my waist - yet again. At one time or another, most of us accumulate a few extra kilos and want or need to shed them. Most people who comment on diet plans will tell you that it is important to make lifestyle changes and not just do the latest fad diet. This is true. Others will comment that the first three letters of diet are "die" and that's what it sometimes feels like. The seven day plan that Joan and I followed with success can be downloaded here.
