The root cause (a lifestyle of over-eating/under-excercising) will assert itself if and when you've reached your weight goal, and if you've haven't increased your metabolism, you've lost lean body mass and fat and are now sluggish. Calorie deficit is insufficient, it must be accompanied by a fitness program incorporated into a lifestyle change. Otherwise, you'll just get fatter once the diet's over and you're not paying attention anymore. The whole problem with diets is the the imply a temporary program, during which you lose weight.

I'm hoping to lose about 2lbs by the end of the week. My goal is to lose about 20 lbs by May. I have a piece of fruit for breakfast and cereal for lunch and dinner. I workout on treadmill about 3-4 times a week. Will keep this journal updated! Starting the diet today. I’m hoping to lose about 2lbs by the end of the week. My goal is to lose about 20 lbs by May.

I didn't eat Special K for long. After about a week I found this cereal Kashi and it tastes a lot better and it actually has less calories, fat, and sugar than Special K. The taste is a lot better too. I'm seeing better weight loss results with Kashi cereal and that is all I eat every day for breakfast now.

I fell in love with the Special K with Red Berries mixed with yogurt, because I don't like milk. I thought I was doing something great for my health and weight loss efforts, until I read on the label that it contains high fructose corn syrup! What!!! This makes no sense whatsoever. My question/concern is how can they advertise/produce this product as a weight loss aide when it contains a compound which studies have suggested cause weight gain concentrated in the waist line area? I am extremely disappointed with the whole issue. Because obviously you will lose some weight, but not as quickly, or where you would want to lose it from, as you would with a cereal which doesn't contain high fructose corn syrup. No wonder it tastes so good. Hiss Boo, I'm throwing my box out. Lesson learned: Read labels and don't trust advertising.

Conratuations Susan!! 65 pounds in 7 months...amazing!! I definitly want to try this. Just wondering though how much cereal do you eat, with skim milk I'm assuming? And for 2 meals a day? What do you eat for your other meal and snacks if any?? Do you get enough protien and veggies in? Keep up the good work! What are your plans for when you're done losing? Will you start to incorporate other foods gradually? This part always scares me because I've lost and regained soooo many times... WOW!! Conratuations Susan!! 65 pounds in 7 months…amazing!!

I eat it for breakfast and for dinner. I also walk 5-6 days a week for 1 1/2 to 2 hrs a day. I'm not saying it was the cereal but it has helped me. people at work keep asking if i'm sick of eating it and i can honestly say no. i started the special k diet on jan. 1st and have lost 65lbs in 7 months.
