And grains convert into high blood sugar and the body's reaction to higher Insulin levels is storage of body fat. Strike Starches and Grains from your diet. beans seem to be an exception.

I've been keeping track, just to gauge my consumption, and I'm hitting between around 900-1000 calories a day; sometimes I can make it to 1200, if I have some extra nuts. This equates to not much of a deficit compared to my pre-Fast-5 intake (more like at or barely below).
