The latest book everyone has been talking about is the FLAT BELLY DIET.
Is this really “A Belly-Flattening Diet That Really Works”

This diet focuses on 5 Flat Belly Foods. These ingredients hold the power to truly transform your body, not to mention lengthen your life. The secret is their magical “MUFA” (Aka good fat!) They’re packed with monounsaturated fatty acids (also known as MUFAs, pronounced MOO-fahs). These good-for-you fats protect you from chronic disease and, according to new research, can help you lose fat, specifically around your middle. That’s why they’re at the heart of the Flat Belly Diet, a unique Prevention-tested weight loss plan.

So what are these 5 Foods?
There are five major categories of MUFAs:
(1) Oils
(2) Nuts and seeds
(3) Avocado
(4) Olives
(5) Chocolate (yes chocolate)

Apparently eating one serving of any of these foods at every meal will help reduce your accumulation of dangerous belly fat; control your calorie intake and you’ll lose inches and pounds, too, especially around your waistline. I am about to give this diet a try, if you have tried it your comments will be most welcome. Getting hold of this book is the biggest problem it will not be stocked at Amazon until October.

OK, I finally got off my FAT **** and started a new diet, I dusted off the pages of my recipe for the Cabbage Soup diet. I will let you follow my progress and over the coming weeks and months let you know how I am doing.

I will include some photos so you can see for yourself how I am doing. At the time of writing this page My current weight is 81kg, my target weight is 70kg. I am approaching that critical age when it all starts to go wrong, just a couple of years off 50 so if I don’t do something soon I will never get started. So keep coming back to watch my progress.
