Can anyone tell me honestly that losing 25 - 30 lbs in 2 months seems healthy?
Portion control and discovering what your OWN body needs for calories and developing a eating pattern based on that is the best solution IMHO

It cuts out high glycemic carbs. You still eat carbs, but instead of a plate of pasta, you eat a huge spinach salad. I actually think you get more nutrients following this diets than what you'd get from our normal diet of bread, potatoes, and pasta. You eat a lot more nutrient rich foods. My breakfast was 4 eggs, with spinach, lentils, and avocado. Before it was three eggs and toast.
