"I love this diet. I lost 12 pounds almost right away. I had energy and eating out was pretty easy. This is a plan you can easily follow for the rest of your life -- it's not a one-time shot. I give it five stars!" -- iVillagerdana01

"I'm a training to be a State Registered Dietitian and there is no scientific evidence to back up any of this diet's claims. The diet is unbalanced nutritionally and can lead to nutritional deficiencies." -- An iVillager
