To eat as many carbs as this diet would require "strictly" would cause weight gain if the calorie burn was not also increased exponentially.

when i started following this diet (the strict, very-carby starting-off version) i *lost* weight. although i cut down my fruits and vegetables, which are low-calorie for the amount of food, i also cut way down on fatty foods and basically eliminated junk and snacks with no health value (though i wasn't eating a ton of those to begin with). granted, for what it takes to make you feel full, you do get more calories from a carb-heavy meal than from veggies or protein, but eating several small meals throughout the day and never getting ravenous really helps with that. i've never been able to do the several small meals thing before this, but i've been really happy and satisfied.

SF is my buffer before anything. Every meal begins with 2 1/2 t of Acacia.
