Thanks for the summary Jenny!

I also noticed that the book mainly adresses women. While the book doesn't say so, the flow of hormones discussion gave me that impression, just like you said.

I also want to point out that the plan focuses (or one of the focuses) on water retention, and the initial 2 weeks cause water-weight-loss, due to the diuretic effects of the cran water and herbs used. Nothing wrong with that as excess body water/retention and bloating isn't healthy.

I followed the guidlines for a week and did not lose any weight. But this may be due to men not having as much water retained as women do, and due to the fact I always drink lots of water 4-6L/day, which prevents water retention. But I did notice an improvement in "regularity"
