While you’ll have to make some big changes, this diet is actually one of the least difficult to follow in many ways. First, you don’t have to count anything. You won’t need to track any calories, carbs, protein grams, or points.

You also don’t have to worry about eating at specific times or following any other arbitrary food rules. As long as you’re eating whole foods and avoiding the foods that are off-limits, you’re following the plan.

Of course, you do also want to honor your level of hunger. Even with healthy food, you don’t want to stuff yourself until you feel sick and miserable. But you’ll find that there’s no need to feel hungry all the time – you can eat until you’re satisfied and listen to your body’s hunger cues.
