Sorry for the vanity but has anyone here tried the new, so-called "Shangri-La Diet"? I'm pretty desperate to lose weight...

Go to a Third World country and drink the water. My dad recently lost 20 pounds after a business trip to Bolivia (he was careful, but he ate a salad that had been washed in the local water). Seriously, go with your doctor's opinion. Personal advice on the internet is mostly worthless, even on an ultra-respectable site like this this one.

If I'd gone "with my doctors opinion" I'd be spending $10,000 a year on drugs, and needing MORE drugs to help me because of THOSE drugs.....I did a ton of internet research...and talking with folks, ON the internet, and I can say now, I'm "cured" and spending about 10% of what my "doctor" said I (or my insurance) would have spent. I think he's getting opinions, and those are of value.....doctors are NOT GODS. JMHO
