No matter the diet you are on, you never eat to be stuffed, that is pointless. Eat to be full.
I would highly recommend you read an Atkins book before you choose to starve yourself into submission.

hah thats nothing
I weighed 215 about 1.5 years ago (right now I weigh 165). I dropped it to 160 in a matter of 3 months. I was eating 600 calories a day and spending 2 hours on the tredmil. What Im doing now isn't nearly as extreme.
and for the most part I kept it off. I was only up to 185 5 weeks ago, still 30 pounds under the original. And I can lift way more now then i did when I weighed 215. Referring to this quote...
