    It's not as easy as calories in/calories out. Please watch the movie "Fat Head" on Hulu. It's basically a follow up to Morgan Spurlock's "Supersize Me" that stresses a low carb model of eating. He eats McDonald's and other fast food for every meal for 30 days and loses weight. The science makes sense. Get rid of the inflammation caused by consuming simple and complex carbohydrates and weight loss will occur, risk of heart disease and diabetes will diminish and you actually have more energy.

    Give it a chance. Go in open minded. Sugar sucks!

    LOL.

    Fat Head should be renamed Hollow Head for what it does to people's education of the various topics it butchers. A good way to make knowledgeable people want to punch their monitor is have them sit through that raging piece of crap. ~Alan Aragon

    LCHF helps a lot of people stay in a calorie deficit by keeping them satiated easier. A lot of people also lose a lot of weight quickly on LCHF but this is not true for everyone. I'm losing slowly but steadily with no counting or food tracking. Some people find this diet hard to maintain, though. I can tell you it can be a big adjustment so if you do decide to try it, give it some time and then re-evaluate how you feel.
