What Losing 30lb in 80 days looks like

Excellent work Sir, congratulations! 80 days ago would put you in early June.

Yes, I started my journey June 5th. It was after a health scare of bad liver results and my weight topping out at 130.5 kg (actually more, but that's close enough).

But it was really the pre-diabetes and liver results that did it for me. I was told I had one 'last chance' to change it around through lifestyle change, as otherwise I would need to get on a lot of medication.

My dad had diabetes, and it was a bad experience. He became blind when my sister and I were in our early teens, and he had a number of strokes and spend many years in a wheelchair.

That’s awesome,could you please tell me what you eat on a typical day?for example for breakfast lunch and dinner?Im 330 lbs and trying hard to lose the weight.

In essence I follow a very low carb diet, but I do not do any calorie restriction. Sometimes I eat a lot, sometimes I eat little. Because I am insulin resistant, my hormones dont respond like with a healthy person. I am trying to develop a natural feeling for hunger and satiety.

I eat typically 5 eggs for breakfast, in butter. Sometimes I eat bacon or other meat. During the day I have meat dishes, often with (non starchy) vegetables, but not always. I do eat salads but rarely without any meat or cheese. I do like cheese, but it has to be quality.

I try to eat not too late, so that I have a fasting period of 12 - 14 hours.

Very important - I cut out most of processed food. This includes fine restaurant food. I cut out processed meat, industrial seed oil and artifical fats. I cook with lard, butter and other animal fats. I only buy grass fed meat and buy pasture raised whenever I can. I get my meat, eggs and butter from a farm in Idaho (https://sevensons.net/).

I should eat more fish.

You are welcome to look at my food diary. I keep it up to date every day.
