just reduce caloric intake by 500 cal/day. That results in 1 pound

Anything at McDonalds (other than salad). 1.5 scoops of premium
ice cream. Reduce portions by about 1/4.

second that.

just think about the folks who lived back some thousand years. what did
they had?

just eat a little less meat, much more fruit and veggies, some nuts, no (!)
junk food, maybe a little bit of vitamines (C,E) plus fishoil (omega 3).
eat about 1 kilo of fruit per day (this is about 4 apples).

plus: drink at least 1 liter of water per day. I put 1 bottle of water
(sparkling) per day to my desk. And add the amount of coffee or black/green
tee you drink to the 1 liter of water.

you sure can eat ice or candies ... just reduce the amount.

Want to speed up the process? Take a 30 min. walk every day.

at least 2 times per week for 20 minutes or so. Use the stairs for 1 or 2
floors.

In short -- be sensible and don't try anything drastic.

agreed!

Plenty of "ice" around here in Minnesota. I just hope they don't catch me
licking the local skating rink on my walks past the park. g

Is ice European for sweets?

I've missed this movie. I've read a lot about it. When I first heard about a
guy eating at McDonald's for every meal I thought .....and? BTDT. :-)

European? there is no such language :-)

sweets: candies or sweeties. well, maybe there is something lost in
translation.

A year ago it was hanging out in the library for Internet access...now
it's licking the skating rink (for dietary purposes, of course). I'm
not sure I want to know what's next :-)

Steak & Shake?

Mmm ...Arby's
You mean their plastic "roast beef"? Never did understand that. Around
here, Arby's have been falling off the planet. No loss.

senior year back in 1978.

Coupons are key to Arby's. Their new Reuben sandwich is pretty good. Not as
good as Friar Tuck's though!!!

The meat part is interesting. I guess this is the ongoing debate. I'm
not sure how the biology works (whether our bodys are better off eating
fruit or meat as the current debate argues). However, I will say that
after eating a 10oz lean steak I am done, and have no desire to eat for
at least 10 hours. If I eat turkey or fruit (of about the same cals)
I'm ready to eat again in an hour. Maybe there is something to the meat
diet thing??

Dunno. But after eating fruit for this long, a ten-ounce steak now gives me
terrific indigestion.

In fact, if I eat a lot of rich, fatty foods -- beef, pastries, whatever --
it will be a "3-Rolaid" night...

IMHO, that's my body telling me something important.

Just curious Jay, how does this diet affect your energy level? I eat a
lot of fruite and vegetable, but I also eat a whole lot of meat and
grain also.

I eat all the fruit I want for breakfast and lunch. Apples, bananas, pears.
Throw in a low-fat yogurt, and some flavored rice cakes, and that's pretty
much my entire diet for the day...

....until dinner, when I eat what most people would consider an entirely
"normal" evening meal. It may contain meat, sour cream, beer -- pretty much
anything. Tonight it was a PB&J sandwich, bowl of beef vegetable soup, and
some chips, washed down with a Killian's Red. Yesterday it was a Hardee's
mushroom & Swiss burger with fries and a malt.

Although I would prefer to make lunch my "big" meal of the day, I've found
that the evening meal is more likely to be a social event, and people just
don't seem to understand when I whip out an apple at a dinner.

Energy. My energy level has never been higher. In fact, when I fall
off this diet (as I did at Montblack's over T-Giving, and at my
sister-in-laws over Xmas), I feel sluggish and dim. Aside from the weight
loss and blood pressure correction, the main advantage of the fruit diet is
that I feel much sharper after eating fruit then I do after eating a big,
fatty meal.

Too spendy, in time and money. Give me 10 minutes for $10 and I might do
it - once. They wanted, maybe, $50 for 30 minutes.
