Help! I gained a kilo in a week!
What were you doing weighing in so frequently? I strongly encourage you to weigh yourself only once a month. On the Don't Go Hungry Diet you eat as much as you need to eat in order to feel satisfied. This results in fluctuations in how much you eat from day to day as well as how much water your body holds. It's therefore possible to 'gain' a kilo or more in a week without gaining a single gram of fat. However, if you listen carefully to your body, eat nutritious foods and do some form of regular physical activity, underneath the daily swings in body water will be a gradual decrease in body fat. It might not show up on the scales after a week, but you'll feel it in your clothes, and after a month you'll see it on the scales.

"FREEDOM FROM THE MENTAL OBSESSION OF TRYING TO LOSE WEIGHT. [What I liked most about The Don’t Go Hungry Diet is] that it’s not about deprivation! It makes sense from a biological / organic evolutionary sense. Hopefully I will experience the freedom from the mental obsession that “trying” to lose weight is. It focuses on having to tune-in & listen to your body – it’s not marketing something unnatural like processed “diet foods”. Genuine. I didn’t feel I was being given the big “sell” so to speak, more the passing on of “wisdom”. Your warmth and energy is evident. Thank you. "
