I am 5'5" and weighed 220 five days ago. i am down to 211 and counting. i have not added an exercise regime, but it's not that necessary. i have so much natural energy from eating right that i went from drinking coffee 3 times a day to none at all, and the 4-5 Tums I used to pop a day, now 0. That's my biggest win so far. I love the diet and am looking forward to a lifetime of healthier eating. in the pros, someone should list that you never feel deprived. rather, you are encouraged to eat! eat! eat! favorite quote "america is starving ourselves to obesity" this diet gives people the nutrients they need without all the extra crap our bodies have to work so hard figuring out what to do with it. that's my piece. peace! i am reading the book, transitioning to mostly raw, and am a level 4.

You don't always have to lift weights. It takes a few months, but your body will begin to let the weight go once it understands and adjusts to your more healthy pattern. That's what happened to me. I had to detox. It doesn't happen overnight. No need to kill yourself in the gym.

Think of your body as a car: your sweat would be the exhaust of burning fat stores off your body. You have to do cardio workouts to break a sweat and work the stores of fat off your body. Also, you need to gain muscle by lifting weights. This will also make you sweat, but not nearly as much as 30mins of cardio. Building muscle mass means you'll burn more calories at rest. Exercising by doing cardio to lose weight is essential but self-defeating if don't build muscle so you can burn more calories. Dieting will NOT help you lose any substantial weight.
