the reason for my current weight is the fact that i quit smoking and could not control my eating. i gained 20+ lbs. had i had this diet, i truly believe i would not have gained this weight.

quitting sugar has been a struggle, but the 20 year smoking habit was crazy. the patches worked great. try not to wear them when you sleep, they give you wacky dreams (though, this may be fun for you)

good luck, and keep us posted on your progress.
