This sounds like a really healthy program, and should work well for someone like yourself, GG, that doesn't have much to lose! I actually think it has a pretty good variety of foods even for Cycle 1, but definitely in 2 & 3. Just be careful because they seemed pretty adamant about keeping exercise to 17 minutes in Cycle 1. That may be because of the withdrawal symptoms you may experience.

I am looking forward to seeing how your experience goes, although you can count me in the group that thinks you look fabulous just the way you are!
