Most of my family is on or has been on the diet for weight loss. You give up more than carbs. you have to stop coffee and caffeine as well as sugar. It's a lot to give all that up. I have done it now for a few months and lost some weight. I feel great after a steak. I seem to need meat. I feel tired when I eat sugar, coffee and pasta. I feel cranky when I am eating too much. I needed to stop and change my intake. I now respect the carbs and don't abuse them. I had just lost focus and a real sense of my body. This diet has made me happy and a lot more in shape. I exercise everyday.
The weight seems to be very difficult to get off after menopause. So I am struggling but feeling better.
My cholesterol is down. I have lost 9lbs. I want to keep them off.
My niece had the gastric by pass...she lost 160lbs last year. I am envious but that is too drastic for me. The operation would scare me.
So I am one of the happy people. thanks for asking and sharing all the information.
