    diet? it's not a diet. look at it like a diet and you might just fail. i call it a lifestyle. :)

    I've been doing this diet a couple of weeks now. I like recording what I eat. It helps keep me from over eating. I've lost 4 lbs so far.

    Thats one thing I noticed. Keeping track helps you eat less.

    Also not drinking pop was the biggest change so many calories and crap for pretty much nothing.

    It doesn't really even taste that great anymore.

    My grandma always had diet so I'd drink that when I was a kid and now I like the taste but I cut soda out completely.

    Just 90% of what I drink is water now.

    I could never do 1200 for more than a week before falling off the wagon. I do much better in the 1500 range. Yes, it takes longer, but if I quit or constantly overeat because I feel deprived for too long, then I'll never get there.

    1200 cal is not easy. I just need to remember to log, is easy to accidently over when I forgot I actually ate something. Best of luck everyone!
