I've been a month on the MWLP now and although I didn't get everything right, there are some very positive changes!
1. I'm feeling physically well.
2. My blood pressure went down after ca. 2 weeks on the programme from ~ 160/100 to continously ~ 130/85 (more with a
tendency to get even lower.) Stopped medication immediately. Best results since ~9 years!!! 3 x wow!!!
3. I lost 6,2 kg = 12 pounds!!!
4. My sleep's slightly better, I'm feeling more rested.
After the first hungry days I'm slowly getting used to the programme. But in between I'm still pretty hungry sometimes.
Funny, but working as a cook, I don't have much time to plan my own meals.
So normally I've just thrown some beans or rice or potatoes etc. together with some veg. and out came a kind of stew, eaten with some soy sauce.
Bit boring, but fine for me
. I think I never got the ratio of 1/1 right.
And there were days where I just didn't want/ had the time to cook for myself, so I just ate some oatmeal all day, without veg- sometimes with a good amount of raw cane sugar!!! (I'm working on that, promised).
Apart from ~ 2h kettlebelltraining per week and an occasional walk I'm not doing much exercises...
Looking forward to see what happens next month.

I hate to tell you...but it's what happens in the long run, not so much what happens in the short run. I once got my weight down to 150 lbs.; my cholesterol down to 115, and my blood pressure down to 100/65.... Then one day I took a single bite of pizza and my mouth exploded! All the cravings came back, and all the weight came back.
