The preparation begins...

Sunday 5th August - Countdown to start of diet 10 days
Watched Man U beat Chelsea in the charity shield on penalties....not a good omen for the start of the footy this year. Mark was not too happy, I told him he should support Newcastle and then he would be used to disappointment by now. The Toon beat Sampdoria 1-0 with a debut goal for Alan Smith in a friendly today....there you go.

Anyway, down the road for my last Sunday night at home having a few beers down the pub for a while. Next Sunday I will be in Spain so that doesn't count :-)

So I told my friends about the diet...results:

"OK I am sure this will be fine for a while"...C....ignore at best

"Yes I understand but you will be back to normal later"....B...don't believe

"Yes we understand and will support you..and want to do this also".....P&J......we shall see

This is going to be hard, especially the social impact and getting support from friends.

I intend to be strong in this diet...whatever they say. In fact it is not simply a diet it is going to be a new way of life.
