I am 49 year old female, 255 pounds.
I have always had difficulty loosing weight even when staying on the strictest of diets. I can’t shed these pounds. I found your diet and recognized that this is probably relevant to my situation.
I have fallen into very bad eating habits, but change my weight only by 3-4 pounds when correcting it.
I started your diet and was excited to loose 7 pounds in 3 days. Then it all stopped. After 10 days I am down a total of 4 pounds. I am very frustrated as I am considering haveing the gastric bypass surgery. I was hoping that I wouldn’t have to if this worked.
What????
I have been painfully strict with the exception of 1/2 cup of coffee a day, which I have since eliminated.
So To date, no dairy, wheat, gluten, caffeine, sugar, sweeteners, or processed foods. My body as usual stopped loosing. I am not happy.
Questionable items I have added in moderation are almond milk and honey.
I have decreased my calorie intake so substantially it isn’t possible not to loose and yet just like every diet I don’t.

Just one tip- cutting down your calories is NOT always a good thing and will actually slow your metabolism, thus hault weight loss and fat burning… It is not about calories per se but the information those calories communicate to your unique physiology which will provide you the desired results of weight loss.
In good health!
