I am wondering if anyone else is out there that feels like they are starving on low calorie diets. I track my calories but eat low carbs and high fat.. I'm looking for friends that are living this way as well.

    I eat at about 50% fat, 30% carbs, 20% protein. This seems to work well for me.

    On Monday I started a modified fat fast (a strict fat fast is supposed to be 90% fat, under 1000 calories per day) and haven't gone under 75% fat or over 1200 calories. So far, I have lost 5 pounds (about a pound a day, which is typical for this type of eating plan). It was a little tough in the beginning, but once I got over the initial three-day hump, I feel fantastic. There's nothing better than waking up each morning to see the scale continually move downward.

    What's been your meal plan?
