I have been trying to lose weight for over two years, I had cut back on my portions and eliminated one of my meals and what do you think happened? I gained weight. I was told I built more muscle, I am starving myself so my body will not let the fat go, or something like that, LOL. Well I went to my doctor and he told me about this program, he was using it. I have been using it for two weeks now, first week lost 3.4lbs, weigh in for week two is tomorrow. What I found using this program was, I still had to many calories coming in and where I thought my carbs were to high I found my fat and protein level were much to high. Bottom line, burning more calories than what you take in will lose weight, it's that simple. Seeing portion size/Cal really opened my eyes. Also, look at the calorie count before eating something allows me to adjust what I am willing to digest.
Yep. Keep on keeping on!0
