    CICO is only part of the story. Yes a calorie deficit will help you get the weight off but will it help keep it off?

    From personal experience, once I beat the insulin spikes, keeping the weight off was almost effortless. I could look over ice cream after dinner and not even notice it, despite being a complete fiend for the stuff.

        I will still polish off the entire tub from time to time, old habits die hard I guess, but it is nice to not have it be a need any longer.
