    It's basically a high fat/protein diet with less than 20g of carbs a day (a little less than two slices of bread).

    It works! I've tried it in the past a few times, but it does involve a lot of fat which is it's biggest criticism. People have opted for the DASH diet as an alternative.

    How do you count the bacon fat that’s left in the pan and used to cook veggies? Is that part of the slice count, or extra?

    @jayneminshull that is awesome and I am sure you will continue to have great success.

    I am into my fourth year now and have maintained the weight loss that happened in the first year for the last three years.

    @31shines post above sounds like my story too.

    I knew how to lose weight for the past 40 years because I had done it over and over wrecking my health on carbs that I could not bring myself to stop binging on.
