Ln Drbc: A well argumented book. The diet is quite difficult and personally I was hungry on it. Hopefully my liver has benefited. Unfortunately about 40% of the fat that I lost on this diet returned the next day when I finished it.

MJ: Update: The pros: the book is well written and the information seems to make sense; I did lose 4 lbs in 4 weeks, which is pretty good for me

Then I took 2 weeks off, and did another 2 weeks, losing another 2 lbs.

The reason I changed my rating to 5 stars is that during Thanksgiving and Christmas, I ate a lot, but did not gain more than a lb, which to me, was amazing.

I have stopped the diet for 2 months now and have not gained the weight back, which totally shocked me.

No, it's not super easy (bec you do get bored drinking just shakes for a month), but it's doable.
I can't believe it actually does what it promises to do--change your metabolism.

If you look at the research, everyone assumes your "set point" weight is set, and cannot be changed, or they tell you to do crap like lift weights and eat protein.

When I was following traditional advice I was actually gaining weight (turns out whey protein makes you gain weight, as he says in the book)

the Cons:
In the book, he says to eat 20 grams of protein (the servings of his shakes), 3 times a day, but people of different weights need more protein. Then, somewhere else in the...

Mrs E Coke: I have been trying to lose weight for years, if I starve myself, I manage to get rid of a few pounds, but as soon as I go back to anything like normal, the pounds (and more) roll back on.
I saw this diet on a TV programme, and thought it might be worth a try.
In the four weeks I have lost 10lb, and 3 inches off my waist. As the book has a 'maintenance' section, I'm confident it will stay off this time.
At no point did I feel like I was starving myself, it took a little bit of trial to get the shakes palatable, but being able to nibble on unlimited veg meant I never got really hungry, and I rediscovered my love of cooking!

kfort16: I wish I could say I have lost more inches in my waist now at the 3 week mark but looks like just about 1 1/2" and 5.5 pounds so far. I had lost 5 or 6 pounds just prior on Keto but that had stopped working and this program made a lot of sense, so total of 12 pounds since January and dropped at least one dress size if not two. I had hopes of losing at least 3 more pounds but ideally 8 more, so maybe it's the fact that I'm getting so close to my goal and things are slowing up. I have to say I have been hungry often, mostly in the first couple weeks. Eating veggies for snacks really doesn't work for me as they leave me more hungry and uncomfortably gassy even with use of enzymes so I have basically been doing the 2 shakes and a meal each day. My gut has been uncomfortable at times too but not enough to make me quit. I think the book could have put more of the general eating pattern required into an easy to follow formula rather than including so many recipe suggestions. I would like a nice concise list of how many grams of proteins, resistant starches, carbs and fuels to follow per meal but I'm on the process of drawing that up for myself based on what I can find in the maintenance...

Scarlet O'Hara: First...the recipes in this book are simple, easy and delicious. I love that you can have a full dinner with healthy unlimited snacks in-between. The two shakes for breakfast and lunch, in my opinion is a bit tough. I like to actually eat my breakfast, not drink it. A shake for lunch, though - no problem! I'm also not sure that it has been proven that cutting caffeine is good for your liver - it's been discovered that a small amount of caffeine can actually help with diabetes and weight loss. Is having one cup of caffeinated tea or coffee really going to make a difference? I did enjoy reading this book and how your liver has such a huge job...so show it some love - absolutely! I believe this book has really good information in it that is easy to understand. Can you help your liver? Of course you can! Drink lots of water, cut out the bad stuff, eat your veggies, get some exercise and get some zzzzzz's...everything will probably start working better!
UPDATE: I just had to write a quick update...I woke up this morning and oddly...my sweatpants were looser on me and my stomach was definitely flatter...I don't believe in using scales but I can tell that I've lost some weight!! I...
