    I did the blood type diet about 6 months ago, That is how I started my weight loss journey . I was having bad knee pain and at my highest weight, I could not even walk, some days I had to use a cane . My brother had just started doing it and mentioned how good he felt so I gave it a try .. In just 4 days my knew pain was gone !! I felt amazing on it ..and my husband decided to follow it at the same time and his blood type was oposite what I could eat ! so it made it hard for me to cook for us plus another meal for my son.
    I switched to get more variety but I still go back and forth with it just because of the way it makes me feel.

    It is very limited so I wanted to make sure I did not get to bored .

    I am AB - so basically I was eating lots of Salmon and Tofu

    I read up on it a while ago and dismissed it as nonsense, but some things ring true for me. I'm blood type A and I do thrive better on an organic, vegetable based diet with limited meat (which is the way I eat anyway). I also do better with minimum alcohol and caffeine, but figured that most people do anyway, neither are necessary. I'm sure some coffee addicts will disagree!!

    I read the book. It's interesting but I don't think is properly backed by science.

    My blood type, 0+ dictates I should eat lots of meat and I just can't. It makes me feel heavy and sleepy.

    It also says I should not consume dairy or cereals. It's true, dairy bloats me a lot, but I can't live a day without consuming cereals.

    Overall, it's just like the horoscope, it says general stuff that may or not be useful to a certain amout of people.
