should be good dub. Our metabolisms never get tapped on their shoulders to get into gear because we are extremely reluctant to ever go hungry. Kick-start your body by pounding through that hunger period until you feel okay/not famished. Until that occurs, you will always be pushing up hill to lose weight.
Be brave - you won't starve in the brainwashed manner you normally would expect.
Proof that this is unacceptable due to the absence of TUs.
