Believe In The Cheese.

[poliphilo]

Today I start a new diet. I have never followed any kind of diet before. I have always believed that every type of food is of equal value and the main thing is to get enough.

Or- even better- more than enough.

Apparently not.

The basic idea of this diet is that one should eat a certain amount of protein with every meal. And so this morning I had cheese for breakfast- just like a Dutchman. craftyailz has been following this rule for several weeks and she's been losing weight and gaining energy.

I don't need to lose weight, but I could certainly do with more energy.

Has the cheese worked its wonders? Do I feel better than I normally would around this time?

Could be.

What will I miss?

The potatoes.

Rolled around in olive oil and salt- then roasted.

Actually I can still eat a few potatoes- provided I eat an equal amount of cheese.

Extra-matured New Zealand Cheddar. Stilton. Yorkshire Blue.

The cheese will set me free.

I was reading about a man who set up his computer on a high table and put a treadmill in front of it, so that he now walks and works!

This is carrying multi-tasking too far, although I realize Jackie is a woman who walks and reads at the same time.

I've read the Zone diet, in fact I think I have the book buried somewhere in this desk.

Keep us posted, Tony.

I will. I just had cod and cabbage for lunch. No potatoes. It was surprisingly good- and I don't feel sleepy at all.
