Yes. I imagine if I *did* do exercise, the results would have been
even more dramatic. But it came off pretty quickly without exercise,
at least the first 20KG or so did. It took a couple of years to lose
the last stubborn few KGs. Hard to believe I was that overweight now.
But that was a totally different lifestyle and a long time ago. I
thought I was eating healthy at the time too!
