Yet another reason I don't give advice--it turns every discussion into a competition or an invitation for people to judge. 33 pounds in a year is pretty great if you ask me. I'd last about two weeks on that diet myself, though.
I find it is funny to listen to people explain to me how I lost 150 pounds wrong and how I should do whatever it is they're doing. I will explain to them what I'm doing, and it's as crazy in its own way as what OP is doing. Works for me is all I care about.
