Yes we have been on this for over a year. I have lost 16kg and OH 26kg. I love being a size 12 and back to how I was before the menopause hit. We have seen a similar drop in glucose, BP and cholesterol and OH has been taken off statins. We now have a slice of spelt bread a day, fruit, muesli and a couple of glasses of wine when we feel like it too. We don't overdo the fat but eat meat, butter, cheese, plus lots of different veg. We find it very easy to eat out too because you can have steak and salad, roast veg instead of potato etc. We never were very keen on cakes or puddings so cutting out sugar has not been difficult for us.
I think there is a bit more discussion about this diet now, but our doctor was similarly astonished by the weight loss.
We also feel very fit and healthy, sleep well and OH has far less joint pain because of weight loss and coming off statins.
