I started at 245 lbs 2 weeks ago. I lost 8 lbs so far. I don't follow guidelines religiously, but the diet helps me keep my carb intake low. Because of my work and travel schedule, I find it difficult to find time to prepare meals ahead of time. I keep protain powder and peanut butter in my office.
3 meals of peanut butter (2 tablespoon) + whey shake while at work
1 meal of Steak or piece of fish + flax seeds
2 meals of peanut butter (2 tablespoon) + whey shake while at work
1 refeed per week
Pros
1 - It helps control my appetite at work.
2 - It helps keep my carbs low during the week
Cons
1 - Horrible breath. I have to brush my teeth 2x at work. Bad for client meetings.
I personally think this diet has lost it's steam among members. I only got 1 response to my previous posting. Thanks.
