Daily Column

DEAR DR. GOTT:
I have been on your no flour, no sugar diet for nearly a year. It is the easiest thing I have ever done. There is no weighing, measuring or ridiculous restrictions. When I started, I didn’t weigh myself or set a time limit. I told myself, whatever comes off, comes off. Not putting pressure on myself to lose a certain amount of weight in a certain amount of time, as really helped. When I started, I was a size 16; now I am an eight and still losing.

I walk and ride my bike every day. I am no longer on blood pressure medication and my synthroid was decreased.

I don’t know why I waited until I was 54 but I now feel 24. People still ask me how I lost the weight so I tell them and let them borrow my book. It is thoroughly worn from being lent out so much. I just purchased the cookbook and have tried a few of the recipes. So far everything is easy and delicious!

DEAR READER:
Congratulations on your success. I have received hundreds of letters from readers who have successfully lost weight on my diet and are now living happier, healthier lives. Thanks for writing.
