    If you want a crash diet I'd recommend the 17 day diet book. I dropped 15 lbs in 2.5 weeks on it last year. I'm back on it right now to lose another 5-10

    If nothing else, you're at least a little taller!

    The powder is unprocessed, harvested straight from organically raised protein powder trees.

    'organically raised protein power trees'

    erm, what?

    ok so I don't know what its called, but you have 2 meal repacement shakes, morning and night and for lunch is like two servings of vegetables or vegetable soup.

    no fruit, no bread, dairy etc.


    anyone know what its called?

    OP I think you are on about the "LighterLife" diet - it consists of shakes and soups.

    Ironically a bride-to-be has recently died on that diet from heart failure.

    ha, thanks, I'm not doing that diet, my cousin is. I kinda want to know how bad it is before I bust down the door on that one if you know what I mean.

    fark, i cant find it. its hard to debunk something you don't actually know what it is. i dont mind really if she does it for 12 weeks, but if you don't have a plan after that, its not gonna work in the long run.

    fail.

    Hi,
    My wife lost 5 stone (70 lbs) following Lighterlife Diet and it worked well for her.

    Personally I could not do it as I don't have the will power as she had to see it through. I am currently doing the 5:2 Diet as well as reducing the amount of meat I eat. I am also trying to do some sort of exercise each day and these together have helped me reduce weight and made me feel much healthier.

    Good Luck

    I think that's medifast. It's like 500 cals a day or something ridiculous, and all the "meals" come in packets in a box.
