feline kilos. Over seven hundred likes, one hundred and fifty-seven shares, and two hundred and twenty comments and counting. It was as if Maureen had gone viral.
Now, Lydia was really close to reaching her goal weight, thanks to Banting and Maureenâs Marvellous Tim Noakes ENDORSED Meal Plans. Just the other day, Maureen had replaced Lydiaâs blurry, fat-from-behind profile picture with another side-on, generic picture of a pretty blonde girl sheâd found buried somewhere on Google. And Lydia had posted that she was now the gorgeous, sexy, confident girl she had always wanted to be, thanks to Maureenâs Marvellous Tim Noakes ENDORSED Meal Plans.
Maureen clicked through to Lydiaâs messages, curious and slightly nervous; who could possibly be writing to an imaginary human being?

Benjamin Di Rosi Hi Lydia, you donât know me from a bar of soap, and I hope you donât think itâs too forward of me to friend you like this on Facebook and private message you so completely out of the blue? But for the last few weeks Iâve really wanted to write to tell you how much your progress and your posts on the Banting for Life Page have inspired me. I hope you donât mind me getting in touch? I also couldnât help noticing that youâve been using Maureenâs Marvellous Meal Plans. Which are apparently endorsed by Professor Noakes himself (RIP). I wanted to ask how those are working for you, as Iâm considering signing up. As a single man, I struggle to come up with ideas of new things to make, and a ready-made meal plan feels like the perfect solution. I hope to hear back from you.

Lydia Steenberg Hello Benjamin. Thank you for your kind words. Iâm so glad you friended me and wrote. Banting has been one of the best things that has ever happened to me, and this group has been such amazing support. So if thereâs ever any opportunity to share that support, then thatâs my greatest pleasure. I must tell you, I absolutely LOVE Maureenâs ENDORSED by Prof Noakes (RIP, his death is just too sad for words) Marvellous Meal Plans. I find they work really well for me and I can honestly HIGHLY recommend them. You should totally do it. And I know what you mean about being single, and struggling to find menu ideas, I have the exact same problem.
Â
Benjamin Di Rosi How great of you to write back so quickly. I wasnât really expecting a response, so you made my day. I find it hard to believe that a woman as beautiful as you could be single. Believe it or not, I coincidentally started Banting at around about the same time as you, so Iâve been really grateful to be able to follow your journey alongside my own. Whenever I feel like Iâm struggling or feel tempted to reach for what I like to call âcontrabandâ, I think about the incredible success and the immense will to succeed that you and so many other people in the group have shown, and it always keeps me on the straight and narrow. Iâm definitely going to look into getting in touch with Maureen about her meal plans, since you speak so highly of them. Perhaps we could share some notes and information about how we are doing?
Â
Lydia Steenberg Oh how lovely of you to say that thing about being inspired by my journey. It hasnât been easy, but Iâm so glad Iâm doing it. Sometimes I think everyone on that group makes it look easier than it really is. I can tell you honestly that I also have my run-ins with contraband. Sometimes I just say what the heck, and treat myself. Weâre only human after all. I was just looking at your profile (blush â I wasnât Facebook stalking you, I promise) and it looks like youâve done amazingly well. How much have you lost in total so far? And yes, Iâd love to swop notes with you.
Â
Benjamin Di Rosi Ah, now itâs my turn to blush. Yes, Iâve had incredible results.
