It is costly and I just couldn't keep paying
that much. However, I lost enough weight that
losing myself afterwards was much easier. I
was able to be more active etc.
So it is a very good program. Seems like all you
do is eat! You will not be hungry at all. If I
could swing it, I would go back on it in a
heartbeat.
Your food is in portions. You just add salads
and veggies. It even has snacks. The food is
very good too.
If mom is willing to let you try it, even a month
of eating that way will help you know how much
of what you should eat. Add exercise, which
they also recommend and you will lose 30 lbs
in no time. Just remember, when you stop the diet
you have to keep practicing what you learned.
And that is what it is really, a good learning tool. :) [ karenR's advice column | Ask karenR A Question ]

it would take a while to lose 30 lbs doing anything, a healthy person would lose about one lb a week, max 2.
mariahneu answered Sunday July 22 2007, 12:11 am: Whatever you do, do not fall into the diet traps like Nutrisystem, Lean Cuisine, Jenny Craig, Aitkins, .etc
1. Sure, some of them work, but once you stop when you reach your goal, you will gain back every pound that you lost, if not more.
2. Diets like Aitkins and whatnot have been proven to be bad for various parts and organs of your body. For example, the Aitkins diet has been proven to be bad for your pancreas.
The best solution that also works the best is to just eat healthy and exercise. There is no miracle diet that will help you lose weight effectively without exercise. I'd just try going to the gym and lifting weights, or even take up jogging and job 1 mile a day, until you feel comfortable with that length, and then go to 2 miles a day, then 3, and so on. You gotta move it to lose it. :D
