I have heard that you lose quickly at first...but what happens when it's time to maintain? Someone I know lost 60 lbs, then quickly put 15 back on when he stopped.

Logically, it doesn't sound like a plan that can be very good for your heart or your kidneys, long term...(too much saturated fat.too much protein)

As in everything else in life, moderation is the key.

Just my opinion...good luck!

Think about it - is this something you can do for the rest of your life? Because maintenance lasts a lifetime!
