I'm going to bold, blood type diet works, it's a different way of thinking, and explains the whys and how's.

Peter D'Adamo has a website, it's all quite complex, it makes complete sense,I follow it roughly, for example,I can't cope with cornflour and pasta, theoretically I shouldn't be ok with bread but I am, thrive on red meat.

All very typical of an O blood type!

Look at how you see food and your relationship with it too

Hi Nsky,

Sounds really interesting, never heard of this but going to have a look. I don't know my blood group but I'm open to a read.

I'm the same and funnily, also 5 ft 1 :)

I'm sure you can do it! I've only recently started loosing weight properly and I use to be the worst at it! All I can recommend is plan your meals, get use to cooking healthy meals from scratch and make exercise a sociable activity so it's more enjoyable and less of a chore.

Good luck and I hope you do it!
