Thanks.

I must say that I really understand what is in the mind of those who claim that "it doesn't work", because this is exactly what I had believed during many years, after many failed attempts to lose weight.

I had become convinced that nothing that I can do could change my weight.

Nevertheless, now, after I had eventually done it, I can see clearly the errors of my previous ways, so I can no longer agree with the opinion that it does not work, when it can actually work very well, as long as you accept that you must be hungry all the time while you are doing it.

I want to add that the feeling of hunger can be diminished a lot when you eat food cooked at home instead of industrially-produced food, especially when you avoid sweetened food. Using modern techniques, like cooking all meat and vegetables in a microwave oven, it is possible to cook food at home in an extremely short time, so the lack of time is no longer a valid excuse for eating junk food.
