Today, I will eat breakfast.

  You’ve heard the expression ‘Eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince and dinner like a pauper’. I have been doing things a little backwards. Breakfast like a pauper, lunch like a king and dinner like a prince. It’s been 7 weeks and not a single pound lost, or gained for that matter. [...]
