Hi, Francesco,

I'm Linda Lenau. I've been on fatvanish for about 3.5 months now and havn't let you know how I'm progressing. I have lost 16 lbs. I have been measuring for years many parts of my body so I just kept on even though you say only waist and calipher. My waist is the last part to lose on my body so I'm glad that I saw improvements elsewhere on my body. Most of it came off on my neck and back. People noticed soon because my face also was thinner.

I noticed that the weight isn't important (havn't dropped a size yet either because of big waist measurement) but my clothes fit different. Almost at the place now where my body doesn't have much choice now but to take it off my waist! Yea! That means lower size also. I have had 6 children and have had a big stomach and waist with appearance of cottage cheese. Have tried repeatedly through spot training to get rid of it. Have also had trouble with low blood sugar and was aware of insulin control - your method helped my to fine-tune that. My stomach is looking more firm and feels less jiggly.(first time in many years) I have told many people about this. I think most aren't willing to try this hard. I think I was ready for I have tried through diets without exercise for years. I'm 55 yrs old now and it was becoming a losing battle as metabolism was slowing worse. I knew it was metabolism related but didn't know what to do. Neither do doctors. My mother died from diabetes. You are right about the glycemic index. I was following that and eating a lot of fruit because of that index. I now do it only for pre-post exercise. So thanks so much. I found your site by accident. I no longer looked for diet info, however, I did use protein powder and I was looking for egg protein that was affordable and I got directed to your site off someone else's site for the egg protein. Thats when I read all your stuff. I believe it was God directing me as I was praying for HELP! I give up, God -Help!

I have been to the doctor's since your program and had full blood work, and total cholesterol was like 217 last year but I had a good ratio of low to high. This year, my total cholesterol was 167 and the ratio was even better.

I lost 4.5 inches in my waist but still need to lose another 3 inches.

Will update again when I have acheived all my goals.
