Yeah I’m constantly using IIFYM, the last time I seriously tried to implement it I did the math and at the time I figured, with my (then) current workout routine I would need 700+ grams of carbs a day just to maintain my energy level. I gave it a try for about a week, but I just can’t eat that much a day. But honestly all “diets” work; Paleo, Kateo, hell slim fast or weight watchers work as long as you stick with it and are consistent with exercise. Its just about finding the one that is right for you and can fit your daily life. I have to say though that IIFYM seems to be the most malleable that I’ve found in a long time, it just takes a lot of planning and some number crunching ability. But once you’ve got it mapped out its pretty much smooth sailing. It's not the soda, its not the cheese burger or fries or bread. Its the person. If a person wants to be fat they'll find an excuse.
