I wasn't on any kind of "fad" diet. She helped me with the long proven balanced food program. It worked for me.

I lost about 100 pounds just by diet alone, then got stuck at a weight that was still too high. Then I started working out, lost another 55 pounds, ended up too skinny, and exercised some muscle weight on.
I think the way the two factors interact vary a lot from person to person.
Glad what you're doing works for you.
