Synopsis
Psychologist and nutritionist Roberts has spent years analyzing why most diets don't work. He started by asking the simple question: What makes us feel hungry in the first place? After scouring the scientific literature and testing various theories and practices, he hit upon a strategy for controlling the body's internal "set point"--that is, the thermostat that controls weight gain or loss. The solution was counterintuitive: by taking two daily servings of either extra-light olive oil or plain sugar water, he took control of his appetite. He lost 35 pounds in three months, and has kept it off for five years. Since then, others have replicated these results. This book includes specific instructions for tailoring the program for individual needs and goals, as well as expert tips, variations, success stories, and an explanation of how Roberts devised the diet and why it works so well.--From publisher description.

      It is working for me...

    Have had the book for about a month, incorporated the oil usage, and food was no longer an issue. Loss of appetite was tremendous, so I just put good eating habits with the oil. You could use South Beach, Weight Watchers, or any good solid method. The lack of hunger with only around 1200 calories a day, including the oil, is amazing.
    I have lost 22 lbs in little over a month, using this method, only 60 more to go. I do limit calories, and junk food, because it is so easy to do, without the hunger pangs...Highly recommend you give it a try.

      MIXED FEELINGS ON THIS ONE

    COOL CONCEPT - WEIRD IDEA - DOES MAKE YOU SO YOUR NOT HUNGRY - BUT WHO EATS ONLY WHEN THEY ARE HUNGRY - I THINK THIS WOULD WORK IF YOU ONLY ATE WHEN YOU ARE REALLY HUNGRY BUT VERY FEW OF US WHO NEED TO LOSE THE POUNDS REALLY DO THAT! I MUST SAY I DID GET FULL FASTER AND WAS NOT EVER HUNGRY.

    THE PROBLEM IS IT DOESNT STOP EATING FROM HABIT, OR BOREDOM, COMPULSION, ANXIETY OR ANY OF THE THOUSANDS OF OTHER REASONS WHY WE OVEREAT !!!

    I'M RATING IT A GOOD AS IT DOES SEEM TO WORK BUT BECAUSE DRINKING OIL OR SUGAR WATER IS JUST GROSS, SO I CANT RATE IT EXCELLENT
    I DID THIS 1 WEEK AND LOST 1 POUND I JUST CANT DRINK THE STUFF --UGGG
