How does this translate into inches and if you do lose inches where do
they tend to be from? I'm asking for a slightly selfish reason, I want
to wear a certain dress for a wedding and it would look better if I
had an inch less stomach. I wouldn't expect the loss to be long term,
I'm doing the slow but sure fat loss for that, but a reasonably quick
and healthy shrinking of the gut for that one night would be nice.


I know that others have said you can't expect to lose from your tummy, but
let me tell you what happened to me.

In the first two weeks, I lost about 14 pounds, and 2 inches in my waist.
Others who've measured themselves on starting and after a couple of weeks
have said the same thing.

I do *not* claim it will happen to you. I *do* ask this: except for a few
pounds and an inch or two, what've you got to lose?

The cure for this ill is not to sit still,
Or to frowst with a book by the fire,
But to take a large hoe and a shovel also,
And to dig till you gently perspire.
