Day 4 and I haven't cheated. I tried fatsmash a couple of years ago and felt I wasn't losing any weight so I went back to my stand by "southbeach". I would last 2 days and start cheating. For some reason I just can't stick with southbeach this time. I really am hoping to lose the weight on fatsmash, this is really easy for me to stick to. Has anyone not lost any weight on Phase I?

No, I've lost weight the whole time. I'm on day 15 and I'm down maybe 20 lbs from when I started, just from a completely different lifestyle and exercising a lot. But I could see if you built muscle, you could break even. That will pass.

I LOVE this diet. I think it is completely realistic. Just make sure you learn to SEASON you food properly. It will help with wanting to eat it and not wanting to cheat.

Phase I was the bomb and it really did some good for me! I estimate about 12 pounds, but not 100% sure. I feel smaller and know that I am making better choices, but not perfect.

Good going on day 4!!!
