    I choose low carb & primal - clean non processed food. It works for me!

    Years ago when I managed to loose weight I did the atkins diet, it worked really well for me teamed with exercise! I started on monday on a low carb diet - i'm eating a lot of salad and meat but very low amounts of carbs, is any one else doing this? i've put in my meals as iv'e eatn them and i'm way over on protein and sometimes on fat ..... yet i feel a lot slimmer than i did this day last week... anyone else doing it like me?

    Meat and salad is not a balanced diet that is restrictive, are you eating dairy or a substitute, oily fish and seafood, loads of nuts and seeds for the minerals and fibre? Carb rich foods should never be eliminated without the associated nutrients being replaced with other food groups.

    I have PCOS and lower carb diets are the only way I lose weight. I lost 50lbs 2 years ago doing very low carb. unfortunately I didn't stick to it & gained it all back so I'm here starting over. I have my nutrition goals set to carbs- 30% , fat- 30% & protien 40%. I restarted a week ago & have lost 4 lbs. I have close to 80 to lose so I have a long way to go.

    How's it going for you or how did it go? I just started mine a few weeks ago (entering Week 3) and saw an initial loss but have been holding steady ... still tweaking the fat intake but not sure why I quickly stalled. Though I stalled at a lower BF than I was before. I'm at 16.9 percent and wanting to get down to 12 percent.

    I've been low carbing (Atkins) for the last year and have had great success. I keep my calories around 1200 and don't necessarily worry about fat. My diet consists of whole fresh foods and very little processed foods. I don't eat Atkins bars or shakes or anything like that. I prefer eating real food.
