Fantastic article reprinted from the New York Times on diets and what's currently known about them.

A waitress at a restaurant (also on South Beach) was frustrated at my endless grilling on what was in what..... and kept trying to convince me to just go ahead and cheat. (This, after she admitted she'd been in phase one for FIVE WEEKS because she'd cheat and have to start over again.....)

Thursday night is when I can start eating fruit and bread again.

Why on earth would I want to make myself miserable for another two weeks, when I'm so close to being able to eat all manner of goodness within reason?

I think you're (both) absolutely right: you have to be willing to change your life to lose weight and keep it off. Most people want to lose weight, as long as it doesn't inconvenience them.

(btw, I'm almost at the ten pounds mark, at 11 days of dieting.)
