I used to go to the carnival when I was a kid and there was always a person there who would guess your age and weight if you paid him. If he missed then you won a prize. I tried it a couple of times but he could guess me every time. My friend who was my height and looked just like me would always win because he weighed a lot less than he looked. I could never figure it out and the carnival guy didn’t see it either, but he was not normal.
I guess each of us is a unique individual and we have different genes and different things about us that make us who we are. So for one person to want to lose weight is different than another person wanting the same thing. If I do it my way and it works it may not work for work for someone else. It is just as probable that if I try your way it may not work for me. The only way I can be sure, to see if it works is to try it and watch what happens. The proof is in the pudding, I think that means the proof is in eating it and seeing for your self. Losing weight must somehow be like that too, when it works it works, when it doesn’t, well, it doesn’t.
