What a difference a week makes. This week I lost 3.6 lbs! My weight fluctuated wildly; down almost 5 lbs in 5 days (not possible to lose that amount of fat in 5 days) and then went up almost 4 lbs in 1 day (again not possible to gain that amount of fat in a day)....

It’s three weeks now since I began the iDiet, and this is where the going gets tough and the tough get going. In the past I’ve written about my difficulties maintaining my weight. It’s harder for me to lose weight than it is for some people because I have a problem...
