I have got round to thinking now though that if they don't want me because I am just over B.M.I then it is their loss!! I have all the skills, a job lined up, and every intention of staying in Oz but weight seems to be an issue, even though I walk 6 miles a day with the dog and am not unhealthy..always been sporty and biggish build anyway.
That is the only reason I am doing it. used to be a personal trainer so know how to lose weight gradually..which I will when I have kick started it with this...already my bad food cravings are disappearing and had no alcohol for 3 weeks!

Have you checked with the makers of the product whether they advise you to do this diet before blood tests.

The only reason I ask is because a friend of mine was on one of these diets and she was advised not to have a blood tests because it does something wierd to the blood, not sure what though.

Just if it came back in your tests though dont know if it would cause a problem.

Bloody BMI rubbish. Just another excuse for the medical industry to categorize people and sell them crap because they are outside a certain zone. Have you noticed how every year they keep lowering the reference points for glucose and cholesterol? Cholesterol of 4.1, better take these tablets to keep it down...hang on, last year the reference point was 5.5, why last year was I fit and healthy and this year, because YOU moved the upper reference value, I need to take tablets to lower my cholesterol.?!!!! (OK it's not quite that bad but you get my meaning.)
