yeah well a big prob mine does happen to be lack of willpower especially when you get trouble makers like gayle starting threads about fave chocolate... how dare she...
It is definately true that by eating more of the right things does boost your metabolism. But we are very good at doing the "feast and famine" bit... Eat loads, feel guilty and cut back big time and then back to eating loads again... Prob with that is your body doesn't know what the hell is going on so when you eat loads it stores the fat and when you eat next to nothing it is more likely to attack your muscle rather than the extra fat....
with all this knowledge I should be thin...alas not
