I am over 40 and purchased this book because my metabolism has s-l-o-w-e-d down and I've gained 20 lbs over the last 2 years due to stress and a job loss which led to emotional eating. I followed the diet religiously the first five days and was STARVING by day 5...after work I came home and ate some steel cut oatmeal and added a tablespoon each of raisins and pecans so I could go to sleep without stomach pains. On page 110, he asks (after the first five days) "...how many pounds have you lost? three? five? even more?" I lost ZERO. ZILCH. NADA. NOTHING.
I have tried to eat healthy for the last 10 years, so the smoothies for me were no surprise. I cannot afford a Vitamix, but purchased one of those "blast" appliances for Christmas and it mixes pretty well. I eat kale and/or spinach every day anyway, along with various other vegetables. I was not used to eating so much fruit, though, as the carbs are really high. I was willing to give the entire program a try.
I'm thinking the reviews which suggest weight loss come from people who are 1) young, with still active metabolisms (see the celebrity endorsements), or 2) folks with a lot more than 20 pounds to lose who are used to eating massive amounts of unhealthy food every day, and so eating nutritional food and less calories resulted in weight loss.
I am extremely disappointed; I was not looking to drop 10 pounds, but was looking, as advertised, for something that would "power my metabolism, blast fat, and shed pounds in just 15 days" (from the cover). This was a waste of money for me; I wish I could get my money back.
P.S. my comments were removed from the official website; apparently, the author does not appreciate anything less than complete endorsement.
