   I bought this program hoping for an easy way to eat normally and still lose weight. At first it seemed like it would be ok, and i quess it would be, if you dont mind having to buy special energy type bars for snacks. Of course you dont have to, you could eat fruit for every snack. It also requires you to make foods with whole wheat flour and to use breads without out enriched flour. It also cant have certain ingedients listed in the first four-five listings. Those ingredients are considered the dirty dozen. Day one is the only easy day, eat every 3-4 hours whatever you want. I dont recommend this to any one who doesnt have time to cook three times a day or have the money for oraganic sugars etc. I think i made it to day ten, felt pretty good, but way to much prep required and special products to do it with. I had never heard of demera sugar or alot of the other ingredients for the recipes. Think I’ll try cutting out sugar on my own and see how that makes me feel. I’ve read in books that eating and drinking foods with sugar can increase cravings, even the artificial kind. Good luck to anyone who gives it a try.

   This isn’t anything new. Its called the “calorie shifting diet” and you don’t need this product to do it. He basically took a common diet and relabeled it and through in some exercise videos. They charged me an additional $29.90 for some bogus supplement that I didn’t even order. I now have to pay shipping to return it because its my word against theirs. Customer service is terrible. Sure, if you want to buy the item they will answer your calls 24 hours a day but if you have questions or need to return stuff you didn’t order you will be waiting a long time. But don’t take my word from it, call their customer service number at 1-877-366-3587. Press “1″ to buy the product and see how short your call is answered (about 20 seconds). Then call back and press “2″ for customer service and see how long it takes you to reach someone (usually 10-30 minutes). This company is shady and their ethics are deplorable. If you do buy this item from the website make sure you have an hour to read all the fine print because chances are you will receive more bills later for things you had no idea you ordered, if you did indeed order them. I sure didn’t

   Edit- Just got charged again, this time it was $24.95. I still haven’t received the product I am supposed to return, still can’t get anyone on the phone, unless I want to buy it, these people are criminals.

   I like my Food Lovers Fat Loss System Kit. My entire family is on the program and everyone is loosing weight. The program is not hard to follow.

   I received my kit within five days of purchase, which was fast considering what state the shipper was in.

   In my 40s now I have tried almost every program out there, this is the ONLY one that is healthy and WORKS. Not only am I losing weight but my blood sugar levels (diabetes) are under control, I have more energy and I haven’t given up things that I have had to on other programs. I still have burgers, meatloaf, pizza, chocolate… nothing is ‘forbidden’. This program teaches you how to avoid certain things that slow down your metabolism (like enriched flour) and helps you to make ‘better’ choices to rev up your metabolism. You’re constantly eating or snacking so you aren’t hungry or deprived. I really didn’t think I would lose weight eating this much…but it just continues to melt off! Yes, like anything in life it does take a few weeks to adjust to but it IS something you can stick with since you are not deprived. I recommend this to anyone who doesn’t want to give up carbs or ice cream but does want to watch their waist shrink every time they have a snack!!!

   Insanity is defined by thinking something will be different if you keep doing the same things. I have found this program to be so informative and well put together. Yes, there are things you must do diffently and eat differently. But I did not find the program to be outrageously expensive or time consuming. Meal planning and journaling are required and certain foods are restricted, but only on a limited basis. Energy bars are encouraged as snacks, but there is also a large section on other options to use as snacks. Enough for ANYBODY to find something they like. This is a very straight forward, easy to use, family friendly plan that anyone can succeed with – - if they want to and give it a chance. To really check out the plan, check out the [...] website. That will give you all of the info you need to see if this plan is for you.
