FYI, natural does not be fat or calorie free. We use real butter, etc meaning you really have to watch your portion control and exercise unless you give up carbs and desserts. So just because you're eating naturally doesn't mean you'll be 120 lbs in a couple of months.
A good thing about the diet is that the things Katie can't have are things we really shouldn't be putting in our bodies anyway. Even if it's part of the social and cultural norm. But that doesn't stop me craving M&Ms and donuts. I seriously believe though that over time we're going to see what our change in diet from natural (like my grandparents ate) to full of junk (like we ate) does to the body besides obesity. Just because I ate 35 years of junk food hopefully doesn't mean that my chances at finishing out this life in a more healthy manner is shot. I man never be thin, but hopefully I can be healthy.
