It's interesting that once I cut out grains, potatoes, pasta, fruit/sweets, starches and continued to eat beef, chicken, fish, Organ meat, low carb vegetables and foods filled with fat (nuts, cheese, olives, etc) caused a 100lb weight loss that I have kept off over 3 years. This was without any exercise or extra activity.
Perhaps I am an outlier.
- ng12 8y agoI think that's pretty normal. Carbohydrate-heavy foods are good for over-loading your body with enegy. It's fine if you're working on a farm 10 hours a day, less so if you're sitting in an office. The reality is 2k calories of lean meat, fruits, and veggies is A LOT more food than 2k calories worth of cereals. It's physically difficult to overeat when your diet looks like that.
