It was one of those days when I got up in the morning and had no willing to do my ordinary stuff. So on my way to work, I came into the bistro in the corner of the street to drink espresso.

I was reading newspaper, when Josh, my friend from school, came in. When he saw me, he took a cup of coffee and approached to me. I was surprised to see him drinking coffee without a cake. After a few minutes of small talk I knew the reason

It started a month ago. Joshs wedding with Mandy, his girlfriend for the last 5 years, is getting closer and Mandy wants perfect wedding or close to that (very reasonable, right? :- ) and she started some special brides diet that she found on Google search and lost 8 pounds already. Now she wants that Josh will do the same for the wedding. Josh is 6″3 height really good looking guy but weights about 250 pounds. So hes a little overweight, so what, and its not only his fault: he is working hard, 12-14 hours day as taxi driver, trying to make some savings. Hes doing well but his weight is rising each week. After his last checkup the doctor asked him to do something about it. From a little overweight he became obised: cholesterol level increased and blood pressure too, level of triglycerides and urine raised beyond the upper limit.

So, Mandy demand that Josh will change his lifestyle and start taking care for his health or else he can forget about the wedding. Now, he was trapped: from one side wedding and from the other - his health. Mandy really loves him, there are no doubts about it. So, my friend Josh is drinking just coffee, no cake, no sweets and even started eating healthy food. Every morning he takes sandwiches made by Mandy and dinner they are having together at home with healthy food and all calorie registration. He succeeded losing 17 ponds in 3 weeks and all that without changing his work or doing any special fitness or exercises.
