Hi All, Today I am starting the James Duncan Diet. I have been meaning to give this a go for a while now but have continuously put it off. I have become quite a fitness/ health fanatic over the past 6 months and I exercise for an hour a day plus weight training. I also eat very healthily (Max Cals 1400 a day) - I do have a…
