I liked this diet when it was called the Hacker Diet in the 1990s, LOL. Congrats on your success, and this is a very well-written and organized article, although be aware that to women it is going to come across as a little bit mansplainy. 50 pounds in five months is awfully fast, And not necessary an indication that your new habits have stuck. I wonder how you’ll be doing three years from now. I lost 50 pounds about six times before I finally figured out how to keep them off!
