Guest guest Posted February 12, 2000 Report Share Posted February 12, 2000 Hi Sharon: The diet works great. I have finished one 12 week stint and am in my 2nd. So far I have lost 17 pounds on the scale, far more than that in total body fat loss (can't say precisely because I didn't get my bodyfat tested correctly at the beginning). Also, go by bodyfat loss, not scale weight because in one 8 week period I only lost 1 pound on the scale and yet lost 5% bodyfat, which translated into 8 pounds of bodyfat lost and almost 8 pounds of lean muscle mass gained. The weight is still coming off. I eat 6 meals a day, a portion of protein and a portion of carbs for every meal. I eat whatever I want to eat on my free day, I don't stint at all. It works.
