Not in my case.

In 2003 my doctors suggested I'd be dead within 5 years if I didn't change my ways.

So, I changed my diet to near vegetarian, zeroed the booze and fags (no withdrawal symptoms to either), and separated from my partner of ~20 years (amicably, still good friends).

Still alive in my 80th year and at least 15Kg lighter.
Well, booze and fags have never been part of my life, but I'll never be a vegetarian, unfortunately.

Wow, would never have guessed.

My progress so far...
When I started my diet on 16 Aug 2023 I weighed 88.1kg and a waist of 113cm and had the muscular structure of jello.
Today I weigh 75.7kg and a 97cm waist with much better posture and musculature.

It helped a bit. I didn't get above 79kg this year. I'm now having a go at the 5:2 dieting idea, which sounds plausible, using Nutracheck to track how much I'm eating.

I've lost some weight. But I'm not on a diet. I'm just not eating as much and I'm exercising more.

However, my dog is on a diet. He's put on too much weight over the holidays.
