Man I can't believe how this thread has turned out!
I wanted to come back and give an update. Leigh I hope you don't mind if I share some of our messages together? If it is a problem please let me know.
After I finished the FLTS I will admit I was let down.
Please keep reading because I was crazy wrong guys! I am just telling you my progression.
I knew that my problems and that things were more complicated then the book made it. I contacted Leigh with this message below.

Hey this is _____ from the JP board (TBDX00).
I finished your book and I want to be honest and say I don't think that it covers my problems. I was wondering since I spent that kind of money on your product if you could give me some advice.
*I am so embarrassed guys for being such a DICK! I shared my life story basically. I finished it with...*
As you can see I haven't lost weight in a while and I need a program that will give me better results. Your book is fine for beginners but I am not a beginner. Could you please point me towards the right direction that is more of what someone on my level would need.
*DICK!*

Here is what Leigh wrote me back.

Hey _____,
First off I am sorry if you were in anyway unhappy with the product. I have put much effort in providing material that was both scientifically sound and inspiring. If you feel the product misrepresents itself please let me know and I will do the best I can to troubleshoot my own personal promotion techniques.
As to your questions/problem...
Question: Why are you under the assumption that different people require different acts for fat loss? Meaning, do you feel that at some point a persons body metamorphisis into a different stucture and it no longer applies to energy in and out?
Fat loss is not a opinion, it is what it is.
Now, perhaps your energy is a bit stunted if you are dealing with metabolic issues, if so then the other book might help you with that. However, even in that case fat loss can still be achieved, just not as easy unless following a low enough calorie diet.
You have to ask yourself, what makes you so special? Why do you think that you are different?
Are you counting all of your intake and is it the right intake?
If you say yes then you should be losing fat, period.
If I stuck you in a closest for 30 days with nothing but an apple a day and water, will you lose weight?
Bet you would. Bet you would be one skinny dude.
How much more advanced do you need it to get then this? Understand I am not trying to be rude, truthfully. I am trying to prove a point.
If you want some SUPER SECRET overly complicated BS, hey there are tons of those out there, have fun at it.
Point blank if you aren't losing, you aren't mixing your training and intake properly, my books help you do that. They may not be overly exciting, but if you think they need to be, then you still don't get it and you need to read them again.
So sit down, open up your mind, forget all you think you know, and learn for the first time what you should have. It is all you need to know and then some.
Please keep me informed and good luck.

At first that email sucked but I did it. I read the book again and I took a hard look at myself. It was the hardest thing I have ever done since I have started this.
I changed my calories and started doing more treadmill stuff after my lifting.
Today I am at 193. That is down from 210 when I started the book not even a whole month ago. My abs are popping for the first time!!!
I wanted to come here to say that and say that I thought I knew it all and was a victim of hype.
THANK YOU LEIGH AND I AM SORRY FOR BEING A DICK! YOU ROCK AND YOU CHANGED THINGS FOR ME FOREVER!
