    Sometimes the easiest way is to cut a food group out and see if you feel better? I've found that I'm not lactose intolerant but that I feel better if I only consume little amounts or if I switch to soya products.

    Exercise, How often, how much?

    A diet plan where you don't have to exercise!!:hmm:How odd! I guess I'll try the 30 mins 3 times a week, that seems quite achievable. I'm never sure if what I consider exercise really is though?

    Exercise, How often, how much?
