Ok, y'all will not believe this, I get home step on the scale and as of this morning and thanks to Fat Smash I have lost 20, yes DAMIT your read it right 20 pounds. It took me 3 months, but damit i'm 20 pounds lighter.
So that means I lost 4 more pounds on vacation, guess all the working out worked.
I almost peed on my scale I was so shocked. When I started Fat Smashing I was 198 pounds, this morning I am 178 pounds.
Family reunion is coming up real fast and I am going to try to lose 5 more pounds. So I got home last night and started Fat Smashing this morning.
THANK YOU JESUS

YAAAY MsLee! Now that you found what works for you doing it seems to be the easier part. Success is so motivating.
My weight is still bouncing up and down. I keep trying EFS but when I get to that serving of brown rice the cravings kick in and I loose it. How the hell do people do this with a full sized stomach?
I almost know the plan by heart damnit. The summary you made me is still with me as a cheat sheet. I am determined to get through cycle one. I may have to substitute shirataki orzo for the rice. At least its zero cal and all soluable fiber.

1/2 cup of brown rice is perfect for my pouch, I sometimes add just a tiny bit over the measure cup when I am hungry which is never when I am Smashing.
I think it is a mental issue for you Marcia, because it is not hard only in your head, either that or I have skied myself up really good.
I am trying for 4 pounds over the next 8 days, if I make it great, if not I will make it by the time I return home.
I would like to return to school in August fourth pounds lighter and I think I can do it.

I think its the higher carbs combined with lower protein. Protein keeps me satisfied longer on much less food.
If I eat a carb based meal I'm ready to eat again in an hour or two. Its not unusual for me to eat the same calories from meat and veg but without sugars or starch. On atkins induction I eat about the same amount but I don't get hungry.
I think it relates to insulin. Since I overproduce insulin I'm supposed to hold the carbs to 100g which is fine for EFS cause you don't eat much. The carbs trigger hunger and I have to find a way around that. I've been thinking adding fiber to slow carb digestion would reduce the insulin spike. Next time around I am skipping the rice for sure.
EFS wil not defeat me. I want to be down 20 lbs too.
