I don't know how it will work with family coming over for the holidays but I lose @ a pound a month even without exercise using "volumetrics" I'm also 7lb from my own weight goal. If you go light on the sugar you can pig out on oatmeal cookies. The one caveat is CA compliant toilets cannot handle the load.
