Just not feeling bloated all the time like I used to is worth it to me, even if the overall weight loss is slow, slow, slow. Eating moderate amounts of the so-called "proper" diet (lo-fat, etc), my poor tummy always felt like a gasbag about to explode.

The second big plus is I'm not hungry all the time, and when I am, I know I can eat something that will satisfy my hunger without having to stuff myself.

I do hope I don't have to cut back on the cheese and macadamia nuts, though. I love them both!
