    Oh, I know - I'm not claiming originality. I'm fully intending to
    actually develop a proper, edible diet though, with recipes for 3
    meals per day with different meals for 2 weeks or so. They'll all just
    be full of roughage and chilli, mind.

    It's based on the principle of conservation of mass-energy: you weigh
    all the food you eat, and work out the weight of your shite, and if
    the first is less than the second, you *must* be losing weight.

    And, in contrast to most other diets on the market, rather than
    banning or drastically reducing alcohol intake, my diet will have
    *mandatory* drinks to have with the main evening meal. You'll be able
    to transfer the drink "allowance" to the lunch meal, with the added
    bonus that this might make you sleep through dinner time, further
    helping the weight-loss plan.

    I'm /fairly/ serious about doing this: I've planned a few recipes
    already[1], and I've got a URL[2] sorted out, and I do fully intend to
    send off a sample chapter/precis to a few publishers for the print
    version.

    [1] basically, taking recipes from a few other faddish diets, filing
    off the serial numbers, and adding chillies.

    Are you going to sell the little scales you can use to measure this?

    May as well offer the full range of products.

    oh yes.

    Standard kitchen scales, in a tasteful light brown colour.

    don't worry - the idea is that you simply weigh yourself before and
    after taking a dump.
    well, that's an option too.
    "I quite like ER, even though they've kill off Dr.Romana now"
    don't get the wrong idea, not stupidly high chilli content - just
    enough to "combat the evils of consipation[tm]".

    And lots of All-Bran.

  6. The message <>
    Ahem! A surprisingly large proportion of a log is made up of dead gut
    flora. You might just be starving *THEM*.
    Frayed knot. It's when you sleep after eating that you tend to lay down
    subcutaneous fat. The old adage still holds true: Breakfast - eat like a
    king. Lunch - eat like a lord. Supper - eat like a pauper.
    I'll help with the recipes. Ask Anne J - my squirrel pie is a cracker.
    But not for losing weight.
    I'll think on it. After a few plates of Adkins (or wotever his name
    were), mind.

    Using the patented Mavis Beacon "Hunt&Peck" Technique, darsy
    <Bzzzzt>

    I think Douglas Adams can claim "prior art". Didn't he have a planet
    where it was most important to get a receipt when you had a dump, lest
    they surgically remove the weight when you left?

    you're all missing the point.

    I'm not claiming originality.

    I'm just going to do it "properly" rather than leaving it as a
    one-liner.
