    Hi Amber I think most of us agree that CC works when you stay on plan. We all ahve hurdles and trigger foods that get in the way occasionally. I've lost about 14lbs in three weeks. You cab also browse through bodybuilding.com for additional info while you're waiting for your book to arrive. Wishing you much success!

    Can you do this diet with just cardio? I really don't want to lift weights right now. I do want to in the future but right now I just want to do cardio. Does this program work with just cardio?

    Amber, yes, I believe it will work with all kinds of exercise and with no exercise. This diet cycles low carb with high carb days, and watches overall calories. As long as you're eating at a deficit, you will most likely lose.

    I am reading through the reviews on Amazon about the book. I am reading a lot of people don't understand about how many carbs grams to eat each meal. Can someone tell me how you calculate your carbs per meal?

    Have you guys thought about making this a group so its easier to find. I use to have a place that let me click if I commented somewhere but that is now gone. I have to search this thread every time i want to comment or read.

    That is a interesting thought. I put it here thinking it would be more visible to people. If the others agree that a Group setting is preferred, I'm up for that.

    Laura - what is a Mio Slushie??

    Oh I just blend up ice until it's a slushie/sno-cone consistency and then put that Mio no calorie flavoring on it. It's delicious!

    If you'd rather form a group that is fine with me.
