I have noticed several unexpected positive effects of this diet. My heartburn has disappeared. No late night stuffing of popcorn and voila. LOL. Also I have more energy and less fog brain. I am very happy with the ease of sticking to this, it really works for me. Ok. Anyone else notice some side benefits they didn't expect?

My unexpected diet bonus is our food bill! I know a lot of people think this way of eating would be more expensive, but for us, it's not. We only eat out once a week now (free day) whereas before someimes we ate out three meals a day! We literally spent like $200 a week on food! Now it's decreased by like half.

I'm also sleeping better, have more energy, and I'm just overall more productive. I think I could do a commercial for this program! (After I lose a bunch of weigth!)

Yes!! I have much more energy, less brain fog (and believe me after 4 kids it is pretty bad!) and since I eat 5 meals a day I never feel hungry. Gotta love it!!

Mae, yes my reflux has gotten so much better! I can sleep on my stomach, I can sleep on my right side! It's WONDERFUL!!!! And isn't the lack of brain fog WONDERFUL?

The best is that I GET TO eat and lose weight!
