Has anyone tried the special k challenge? If so, how did it work for you?

I tried it... It didn't work for me. I didn't lose any weight and was always hungry. It works by limiting calories for 2 (refined carbohydrate) meals and that just doesn't do the trick for someone with insulin resistance. It is the opposite of what I needed--what worked was limited refined carbohydrates, balancing proteins and carbs, and many small meals throughout the day. (I'm also a big fan of apple cider vinegar shots before meals, though I haven't needed to do them since completely eliminating sugars and refined grains.)

Default Special K

I would imagine it is just for someone who wants to lose a few pounds in a short time. Who would want to eat two bowls of Special K and only one other meal every day for any length of time?
