It's true...one size does not fit all...

I've been LCing for 1 year (next week) and never in that year have I counted calories. I've lost 104+ pounds. I use mayo and butter and cheeze and I eat fat on roast etc. My cholesterol as of last week is 159.

Other people may have to watch calories more than I. But that comes with tweaking the program and is not necessarilly applicable for all newbies.

So while the warning to newbies is well received, I'd just as strongly encourage people to read books, choose the program that most appeals to them and follow it religiously. Tweaking comes later.

Good luck!
