Diet Plan-Dr. Poon's Metabolic Diet... very much like Atkins. I was just counting calories but I struggled with that and find that sticking to low carb veges and lean meats is more effective.

I live in cottage country so I hike a lot with my dog and keep track of my steps with a Fitbit Flex

Strengths- I have 6 chickens so fresh eggs come easy. I love to cook and am not a picky eater. I have good health so I can get out and get daily exercise.

Super weakness

icing, chocolate, toast with butter. I live with 2 other people that are not carb conscious.

Hi, Been doing LCHF since January and have lost a total of 29 lbs but my primary goal was getting my blood glucose under control and I got off my 12 year metformin addiction in late March. My Endocrinologist was majorly impressed, lol. Sadly, now my thyroid is acting up again so I am now working on healing that. I have a hard time losing because I am still healing but it is slowly but surely going in the right direction. Mostly, I feel so much better; no surprise right? Type 2 is rampant in my dad's side of the family so I am trying to break the trend. I have a pile of research (I do it daily) at least 3' high and I find it fascinating. DH has lost 64 lbs so far; 53 of them since Father's Day June 15th. He is looking wonderful!

I've been put on low carb by my ob/gyn, endocrinologist and dietician. Over the past two years I have been diagnosed with both PCOS and endometriosis. The pain from my endo is very server, I take Naproxen 500 and t3 each twice a day and still need a heating pad for pain. I want to have children but I've had to go back on the pill to try to regulate my hormones. They say that one of the best strategies for helping the symptoms of both conditions is to loose weight. I started the pill this month and low carb this week and have already lost 5 lbs! My goal is 120 lbs because whenever I'm between 115-125 I don't have any muscle or mood issues. OH and one of the problems with PCOS is that I burn half as many calories doing exercise as I would if I didn't have PCOS, so my weight loss is very diet centric and I am VERY bad a dieting. I'm going to need a lot of help with this one.

Hi All,
My name is Roy and I live in Falkrik, Scotland.

HW 290 CW 270 GW 210 Age 52 Male

2weight training sessions a week plus one or two tennis session. Lots of dog walking.

Started taking a real interest in getting healthier in January last year when my weight hit 290lbs. I started hitting the gym three times a week as per the Stronglifts workout. Made some great strength gains and got fitter and lost about 5 kg without altering diet at all - if anything I ate a lot more!

Realised that to lose more body fat I needed to alter my diet so have played around with Dukan, Lower Carb High Protein, Paleo and have lost another 4kg.

After reading some tips on here about LCHF I have decided to give it a go as it seems to suit my food likes. I have gotten used to not eating bread/pasta/rice over the past few months but now the main target is sugar. Sugar in fruit juice / coffee and the very occasional biscuit!

For the last two weeks I have been at the supermarket everyday and am spending a fortune! And a heap of time due to all the home cooking and preparation so I hope it will be worth it.
