I LOVE this diet. I've never done a diet before this one. I don't deal with hunger very well and I don't do well in following general guidelines. I also don't like to shop for "weird" items or do something where, say, I would only eat a certain food for a whole day.
This diet is great. I'm never hungry, and there is a happy medium between having options on what to eat and following a prescribed plan.
I will say that I didn't see a huge amount of weight loss the first week-this is Day 7 for me, so officially I'm supposed to weigh in tomorrow, but I lost 5.6 pounds the first 6 days. We'll see how tomorrow's weigh-in goes. My theory is that because I wasn't obese to begin with, I wasn't going to see the 10-pound weight loss a lot of people saw. I started off at 202.6 with around 36% body fat at 5'8.5" so obviously I need to lose some weight, but it's not an extreme health hazard at the moment. I predict that I'll actually lose a lot more in the coming weeks as opposed to seeing a dramatic loss right from the get-go.
