I read this today in the Metro....either LT or LL...
DIET OR DIE - WATER WAY TO LOSE WEIGHT
Grandfater Idris Lewis was told to diet or die - so he lost more than 63.5kg (10st) by consuming nothing but water and nutrient shakes for six months. Mr Lewis 69, needed heart surgery by the end of the year but was too fat. "It was a case of diet or die. I had no choice - I had to lose that weight," he said. Advised by his GP, he stopped eating, instead drinking water - tap or bottled to give him variety - and nutrient-rich shakes. '"Occasionally, I'll see an advert for steaming roast chicken or a piece of steak and think that looks nice", said Mr Lewis of Nailsea, Avon, who now weighs 103kg (16st 3lb). He will soon finish his diet and is to have the op in October
ALL I CAN SAY IS "WAW" AND "WELL DONE" - So if a 69 year old can cope, so can we
Just a nice little thought and I really had a smile when I read it as there is so much bad publicity with VLCD, but just proves it works and that it was for medical reasons and a GP recommended.....
