Lessons learnt:
1. Think things thru before you jump onto the wagon :-)
Obervations:
1. By no means do I propose that this diet is entirely ineffective. It perhaps is very helpful for people with the following dietary patterns:
a) Diets high in fat (oil, butter, ghee/clarified butter)
b) Over eaters. People who satisfy the craving rather than the hunger.
c) Possibly diets heavily inclined to meats and completely devoid of vegetables.
2. This might also help those people who have extremely sedentary lifestyles. Veggies and fruits will added minimal calories. So even if they dont lose any weight at least they wont gain any.
3. Lastly even though this will give you an intial boost in weight reduction, it is a tough one to sustain. Therefore use the boost and bring about an essential change in your lifestyle that would get you on your way to your weight loss gain. It needs a patient and sustained effort.
Good luck. Lets see if I can follow observation #3. My current goal is to beat my brother in Kgs lost by the end of march :-)
