I can only describe the induction phase as all the fun of having the flu without the inconvenience ....

I use a Polar FT4. IMHO Polar make the best HRMs.

I'm not aware of diet coke having any effect (either positive or negative) on weight loss. It does contain caffeine, which is a diuretic and also contains phosphotic acid (as to most colas) which has been linked to kidney stones.

Just started on Diet Chef .... so far I have found the food to be very tasty, a lot better than the Weightwatchers ready meals and so far I have not had too much of a problem with hunger pangs.
