Sorry, I'm almost 4 years to late. I'm not sure how long you should do it but because I was obese, I chose to let it be part of my everyday life. With exercise, in the beginning, I dropped about 5lbs per week. But that just depends on how much working out you do. I did an hour in the morning and an hour at night. Zumba.

That sounds like a great diet... How long are you supposed to do it and how much weight can you expect to loose on this diet?
