I was the same way!! I was so shocked at just how many carbs and sugars were in everything I ate!!! I lost 15 pounds but I am also pretty heavy too and this lifestyle I was living was an ongoing thing for sometime before I finally noticed something was critically wrong LOL Good for you keep up the good work. I am curious to see if people are having a ongoing loss though, so far I just hear about initial weight loss and I am interested in what happens after that???
