    For those of you saying things like "a calorie is a calorie", it's actually not true for everyone. Everybody's bodies are different. My body in particular, to my extreme dismay, does not lose weight as quickly when I eat higher glycemic foods. It really sucks but that's just the way my body functions.

    Taken longer than I thought! Lol. People think low carb is meat, eggs and cheese. What they don't realize is I more salad, cucumber, cauliflower, spinach etc in one day than most do in a week. Love low carb!

    Yep

    Had sliced seedless cucumbers, tomato, red onion salad snack.

    Cole slaw mix with Bolthouse Yogurt blue cheese dressing side dish.

    Avocado is moderate carb

    Celery is low...

    But the Sargento low fat cheese sticks are a yummy snack too!

    I'm only moderate low carb. Not sure 60-80 carbs is low?

    Been on that level of carbs for a year and a half. It isn't hard to stick to.

    But I like veggies!

    Yup. It is. Keto is <50. Plain ol' low-carb is 50-100. Lower carb tends to be 100-150. But it's your show, you can do it however you like. That's the beauty of it all. :smile:

    2pounds down so ummmm thisno carb diet I like!!!!

    Congrats on what you've accomplished so far.

    I've been keto for over a year and all 91lb was lost on this plan. I currently keep it 40g or less, but spent most of the time at less than 20g.

    Watch your macros (which will keep your cals reasonable) and be consistent over time and you should do fine.

    is that even the topic here? Or is this just a general thread to post anything?

    FYI - 1000 calories of donuts = 1000 calories of vegetables from an energy standpoint, however, they are not the same nutritionally.

    Do you have a medial condition? I would assume yes...

    Sorry but this is a public forum and just because you are the OP doesn't mean you can dictate what others post...

    Low carb is fine but not necessary and once you introduce them back you will find an influx of weight gain...why? a few reasons, glycogen stores being filled and there goes your calorie deficit...that is why moderation and no elimination is typically a better approach.

    Yeah, that 100 year old fad really hasn't been around that long at all, amazing doctors have been prescribing it at all when it's only been successful longer than the FDA has existed. What's next, the sage wisdom that as soon as you eat carbs again, CICO magically stops working, or the advice that it can't be done long term?

    LC is nothing more than IIFYM with a big gap between carbs and fat. Why do you hate IIFYM so much?

    Actually it's been around quite a while. Much longer than the low fat diet the US government has pulled over your eyes. Although I had to start a vituperative discussion by actually making a statement. Everyone has been so careful up to now.

    Guess I'm just a risk taker.
