Hi Caligirl, you hit the nail on the head and I want to elaborate for other visitors. FAT TO SKINNY works for everyone regardless of what kind of base diet you eat simply buy following one rule.....

"Replace all the high sugar foods with low sugar replacements staying below 20 net carbs per day"

It doesn't matter if your a vegan, vegetarian or carnivore......  just get rid of the sugar, the stored FAT will be used as fuel and you WILL lose weight.

 ;D caligirl i could not have said that even better to myself..but i dont have the fts items in my home but i have started today(10/11/2010). once i start my sugar withdrawal i am going to need all of y'all to be on here at the same time because i will need a lot of support. i just totally stopped to grapefruit diet 1 week ago and i have been eating sugar sugar  and more sugar because i was reading all that i could about the fts plan and i knew that i was going to start it. i got carried away on sugar.......so lets do this thing......oohwee

So proud of you Keke!  ;) ((Big hugs)) Right here with you girl, and as you can see everyone here is so very supportive! You're never alone and you CAN do this. All those other programs just cause us to go overboard when we stop them because we felt deprived giving up our favorite foods. Doug and Umpa have built success right into this program. You may not even feel the sugar withdrawal (it could happen). I had a very slight headache for 2 days, that was it. Nothing like when I got off coffee.  With so many great recipes posted here it's easy to satisfy every food craving on this board (if not Umpa is a McGyver in the kitchen :D).  If times come and you feel like it's getting difficult, perhaps find a scripture, affirmation or some quote that touches your heart to help keep you focused. Just remember too, not only will you be more beautiful than you already are, you'll feel better, and wearing all those hot clothes we always dream of shimmying into.  You go girl!!  BTW, how are you feeling on Day 3 of your new life?

You are a McGyver Umpa! I have never seen anyone who is such a magician in the kitchen! Even those cookbooks they sell with conversions in them are no where near as amazing as yours. I certainly appreciate all you do and I don't think I'm speaking only for myself! So thank you.

Keke - you'll feel better soon, it's already subsiding! WTG girl!

P.S. Can we please add Umpa to the Spell Check? hehe!

I know I'll love the new cookbook. Is it getting close?

BTW - I meant to add your name to the spell check dictionary, because it does not recognize your name! Your spelling is fine.  :)

hahaa! Oh caligirl that is funny! I work two jobs so I type so fast I can't read some of my own spelling.My name is sherri .Doug calls me umpa because i am very short like the umpa lumpas in charlie and the chocolate factory.i also LOVE to bake! I have a wicked sweet tooth!
I am trying to get the cookbook out by oct.31 Paula. Doug is doing the formatting now so I think worse case scenario we may be looking at the second week of november.i want everybody to have it in their hands before the holidays. :)
