I'm down 17 lbs since starting. Thankful that my wife started us down this path. Easy to do so far, discovering lots of new recipes and never feeling any cravings or hunger at the end of the day. Energy/focus is up, waste material (water bottles, food packaging, food waste) a fraction of prior, and enjoying the journey with my wife as we plan shop and cook together have been additional benefits.
I agree with all that and was also down 17 pounds for 11 months since starting.
our favorite simple meal is cream cheese and chilis on chicken breasts...5 minute prep and tastes great
