Bumping this up to share my experience with this diet. I started it at the middle of August, and for 3 weeks interspersed the Anti-Estrogenic Diet in, also by Hofmekler.
My experience was a bit different than Ray's. While I did share the energy, wow did my strength just plummet. Granted I have been injured, but I tried some lifting where I avoided my shoulders and wow, my strength was nearly cut in half.
The good part was the convenience as Ray said. It was easy eating kefir, yogurt, etc.. although the organic part that is pushed really made it expensive. I also felt I gained great control over the hunger too.
I experienced a lot of the issues Ray did with overeating on the diet, right off the bat. The good part was that I eventually got control over that and I felt like I didn't want to go overboard after awhile. I ate a good portion of food at night, but did so slowly and really gauged my hunger.
The best part, overall, was the Anti-Estrogenic Diet. While I'm hesitant to recommend the Warrior Diet, I have to give a huge thumbs up to the AED. This guy is on to something here. It's overall the same diet as the Warrior Diet, but with a few major change ups in the food choices. The overall idea is to rid the body of synthetic estrogens, while cleansing the liver out.
I'm not sure how it works. I'll say this though, my metabolism kicked up a notch. I started dropping a bit more stubborn fat. Something I did during it was needed though, for sure - I felt better afterward.
I added in some pills with Milk Thistle too, as well as a cup of unsweetened cranberry juice a day. It was only 3 weeks too - it's not meant to be a full time diet.
Overall, the Warrior Diet can be a nice change of pace, but I wouldn't marry myself to it. And the AED is a nice thing to try for sure, but isn't long term.
