The program absolutely works if you stick to it. What I like about it is that all the foods you need are right there in your grocery store. Doing it with a friend is very helpful because you can compare notes and share recipes. What I don't like about it is that it doesn't have enough chocolate for my liking! :thumbup: :lol: All kidding aside, if losing weight is what you want to do, this is a wonderful program that does work if you stick to it.
