10 August 2009 is the day that I began a new adventure. The Beads Diet, or also known as the Accu-Weight Diet. This is definitely not your run-of-the-mill diet.

As a fact, it is so far off any other diet I've ever read about or done myself that I needed a place to keep it all together, a place to write down my life on this path.

MY GOAL: to finally lose the weight I had gained when I stopped smoking almost 10 years ago.

Not that I am currently heavily overweight. But I have always been very skinny and I feel at my best then. From the 45 pounds I had gained, I managed to rid myself of 20 pounds in arduous attempts. But the last 25 pounds have stuck with me way too long and tired of constantly "dieting" and hovering around the same 5 pounds, I decided to drastically change something.
