Because it's technically a crash diet, you will probably put some of the weight back on over a period of time afterwards, but that's what I did. I didn't feel like I was putting on weight though - I still felt slimmer than before it! It makes any diet you go on afterwards feel miles easier than it did before! And I've never gone back to the weight I was beforehand, so it was so worth it, because I managed to go below a weight I had not managed to go below for years, even with trying really hard.

And good on you for going to the gym etc!!!

I find that you start noticing the weight loss on Day4 (banana/skim milk). You will definately continue to lose after the 7days are over.  Banana day seems boring because you only have two choices, banana and milk.  Here is a way my co-worker and I used to make it more exciting.  1) Banana cereal. Slice banana in a bowl of skim milk, it is suprisingly filling. 2)Plantains.  Did my research and found that it is a part of the banana family.  I would bake or grill slices of ripe plantains so I actually feel like I'm eating something solid that day.  If you make the slices really thin, you can eat it like chips, as a snack.  3) Banana smoothie. Not my favorite but, I know people who blend banana, milk and crushed ice. Hope this helps.
