My dad has diabetes, and I casually got Amazon.com to send him the Shangri-La Diet book. I left him a message saying (still very casually) “I came across something that you might find interesting. The book is in the mail. Talk to you soon”.

A few weeks later he (casually) mentioned that he had started the oil, and was now physically incapable of overeating.

A few more weeks later, and he reports that he is unable to finish his breakfast in one sitting - he has to eat half, go work for a few hours, then finish his breakfast.

I’m elated.

My father has been compared to Homer Simpson. Both in the “get thrown out of Pizza Hut on all-you-can-eat night” and in the “awwww, my stomach hurts… I shouldn’t have eaten that packet of gravy that I found in the parking lot” departments.

From the SLD forums.
