Summary: Love it!
Comment: I started this diet six years ago. The first week is hard (stomache cramps)...after that it is cake. I lost 20lbs in two months. I then stopped paying attention to it as much, but since my cravings had been eliminated, I ate the same way and kept the weight off for four years without even trying. I recently had a baby...gained weight, and have started back on the diet.
People complain of being hugry during the day...then they are not doing it right. People who complain of intestinal problems...take fiber at dinner (I think there is even a chapter about that). The reward meal is GREAT! Yes, you CAN'T eat your normal four slices of pizza then add a bagel and a candy bar...but you can eat 2 slices of pizza half a bagel and half a candy bar (it's supposed to be more balanced...but I eat in moderation whatever I thought about throughout the day...keeps me from cheating -especially in the first week!). As with all diets...for some it works, and for some it may not. Never be hungry...drink lots of water...read the book cover to cover!!! Don't assume you know what they will say!
My mother lost 100 lbs in one year then hit a plateu. She's gained 15 lbs back in seven years (no longer following the diet). Pretty good if you ask me!
Looking forward to returning to my previous weight in 2-3 months! Thank you Hellers!
FYI - I would redo your website free of cost (maybe for a book) - not bad, but could be better!

Summary: working good
Comment: Been on the program for 2 weeks, and I've lost 8 pounds. Definitely getting rid of the "chips" craving. First couple days are tough, no snacking, but once you get by that its all good. Realizing your a "snacker" is good too know as well.

Summary: This diet really works...but
Comment: Two friends of mine at work would rave about this diet that they were on - they werent obese or anything like that, but you could tell that they both looked slimmer. I was currently weighing 160lbs. I am 4'11 - so that is not a good thing. I read the book and went to the commisary - stocking up on all i needed to take this diet seriously. I am a working wife/mother of 3 - so i needed something that would allow for me to come home and cook a nice dinner on a daily basis so this diet seemed to be the solution for me....
Oh my God!! i can not tell you how well it worked for me. The weight began to drop. I went from a size 14 to a size 8. I went down to 130 lbs. It was awesome!! I loved it. I had the energy, i had no appitite. It was as if my stomach shrank - because i couldnt even eat a whole lot after a while..
BUT... then i stopped eating in that manner and began to incorporate sugars and carbs into my diet during the day and the weight came back over a period of 2 yrs..
I am now at 165 lbs, more than i have ever weighed before - but the diet in and of itself works. I am back on the diet, because i know that it works - and next time when i get back to my wieght, i wont gain it back!!
