How lucky am I finding ‘Sweet Poison’, I have been trying for several years to ditch the last 10-12 kgs, but it will not budge despite a vigorous weekly exercise program of 2 x 1 hour runs, 2 x 25-30km cycle sessions, yoga, pilates and walking every lunchtime. It’s been like that non-stop for almost 2 years. Even training 50Km a week for a half marathon would not move the stubborn extra weight.

I commenced quitting sugar cold turkey on Saturday and I already feel the benefits and now I hear that I can actually go back to full fat milk and even cheese, good bye low fat…oh my goodness! I’ll check back with the forum in a week or two and let you know how much I’ve lost.
