Stop this bad talk about food right now!!! I logged on and now I am starving too!! Actually about food tasting wonderful afterwards it actually doesn't. I have eaten in social situations a few times and have also downrighted cheated on others, and it isn't worth it but also wierdly junk food (chocolate) didn't taste as good as I thought it did, fairly healthy savoury food tasted the best, belive it or not. i think its one of the best things about this diet, it breaks a negative cycle with bad food. The key is not to eat in the first 3 weeks I think, as they say it takes 3 weeks to break a habit..
