    I'm on an all carb diet. My friend Karen suggested we go to Taco Bell, and I said, "I can't go to Taco Bell, I'm on an ALL carb diet, god Karen, you're so stupid"

    A no carb diet means no vegetables, no fruits, no nuts/seeds, etc…

    It is not sustainable and you are basically setting yourself up for failure if you try it. Instead, eat a well-balanced diet of carbs, protein, and fat.
    ^Unfortunately, this. I've walked that road before, and learned so much about healthy carb sources like veggies, whose fiber and vitamins>carbs.

    Don't eliminate. Just reduce appropriately and make the carbs you eat high quality ones.

    Thank you for the info

    I don't think that eliminating carbs is good for your body. Moderate carb/complex carb is what my doctor recommends.

    I am wondering if anyone has done the no carb diet. Pros? cons? Have you added carbs back? Did you gain weight back? Should I have some carbs?? TIA!!

    I did Atkins years ago, was constipated all the time. Also got tired of eating cheese, meats, fish etc. It was an experience, IMO a bad one. I lost a few lbs but when I added carbs I gained it all back. Now I am a fan of the "good carbs" diet. Something I can do for the rest of my life.
