That is funny, then how do patients on low carb diets have their numbers decrease so much that they do not have to take any medicine?????

There are so many people doing low fat and still cannot lose. There are so many people doing low fat and are still diabetic and hypertensive. It does not matter who says it, low carb gets these numbers in a good range and takes off the weight.:wink:

I am 5'5 and mine says I can go as low as 107. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

I have the same problem with not eating my calories. It does not matter to me because I am not going to eat when I am not hungry. That is what got me here in the first place!! I am satisfied because I am eating low carb. When I was doing low fat, I was eating all of my calories and still felt hungry and dizzy. This shows…

Protein is valuable, it fills you up!!!!!

When I went into the store yesterday, I saw a fit woman at the fresh doughnut section. I thought to myself, she can eat those because she works hard, but for me NO. I do not even want to put that into my body. That is how I have to look at junk foods.

I figured it sounded strange. Soooo many people give advice on here and have no idea what they are talking about!!

You don't need to "detox", just eat less and exercise.

I will say a lot of people bash Phentermine. If you take it, under a doctors care, it is ok. It intended for obese people who need help with appetite suppressant until you get used to eating smaller amounts of food. That it what it is intended for. It is habit forming, so long term use is not recommended.

Exactly!! Also, I do not see where she is trying to gain weight.

Sounds good, thanks for sharing!!

can you tell me where you are gaining the fat, because when bones are showing, there is no fat there.

BTW, Atkins is a low carb lifestyle. I do not have cheat days or any of that, this is how I eat all of the time.

Well I must be a freak of nature because my weigh day fell within this period, and I still lost my weekly amount?????? :noway:

I keep my carbs at 30, which is low carb to me. Some other people keep it below 50. Just depends on what works for you. :wink:

Cut out some carbs!! My stomach is the first thing to go when I do this. Also what the above posters said about the exercises.

I eat whenever, even a 1/2 hour before bed. This has not made a difference in my weight loss at all.

Where do you buy almond flour? Can you use protein powder to bake with?

Thank you guys for your help, when you consider the volume, makes perfect sense!!!

I love it. I also did counting calories and did not feel well. I was getting dizzy. I did lose weight,, but you could not really tell. When I started low carb, I had researched it a long time ago and more recently, I felt great. I even look better in my clothes because I am losing inches. I have read all of the studies on…

This is correct. If carbs are there they are burned, not fat. That is the whole point of ketosis, eliminate the carbs and burn fat. I feel wonderful in ketosis and I work out.

Mondesa, how often are you weighing? I thought for sure I should have lost like 3 pounds the other day. When I did, it was only 1.5. The next day I weighed just to see, and I had lost 3 more!!! I think sometimes it is just wacky. I would wait and see if it continues.

Wonderful!!!! Can't wait until I am there. Do you have any pics?

How is water fatal?

Try it and see how you feel. I have no problem with energy and no problem with staying on track. To me 100 grams is not loe carb, but it might work for yo.

I have to say low carb. I have tried both. On low fat I was dizzy, always hungry, and not losing very much weight. I could not wait for my cheat day. On low carb I feel great, I am losing weight and inches, and I do not even have cheat days anymore. This is totally sustainable. Out with the junk and eat naturally with…

This is true. A lot of people have a hard time because "low fat " has been ingrained in our every thought!!:happy:

I read the original book and I agree!! I have mine set on here as 30 but I never reach it. I mostly eat a meat with vegetables, or just a veggie casserole. I think if I were to raise my carbs more than this, I would not lose the weight I need to lose, which is about 80 more pounds. :happy:
