I can echo a lot of this, having lost 30 pounds as well, though that was through the Ideal Protein diet. But the info about how to maintain weight after the initial fat burn portion is invaluable. Cut back carbs and sugars (it's amazing how many things have sugar...), processed grains, etc. For this diet, lots of veggies, lots of protein (un-fried).
Absolutely agree about the energeticness, focus, and confidence. Went from 215 to 180, and it's a huge difference.

Good post!
thanks. Steve, my trainer, motivator guy, is getting me to eat more protein as well now. Really getting into the nutritional aspect of things now.
