I’ve been on this diet now for three weeks. That’s 21 days of eating and living differently. I now have breakfast every single morning. At the weekend it’s scrambled egg on toast, while during the week I usually stick to weetabix and some fruit Lunch is no longer a roll – it’s usually soup and [...]
