A few years ago I cut out most carbs and lost over 20 lbs. I think I did this for a bit over a year. After that I gained the weight back, but it was the eating plan that I found the easiest to adapt to. Most of the things I really wanted to keep eating were ok and I could easily get rid of the things I had to avoid.

I decided while at the Reunion to do it again. For some reason the motivation came back. So Monday morning I went back to the no/low carb (about 40 gms of carbs a day). I weighed myself Monday morning and will weigh in once a week.

As I said, here I am.

Hi there! I also find the no carbs works for me, I am on two weeks of cleansing so less than 20 carb grams and all from veggies.. a few from the spot of milk I put in my coffee.. I am into it almost two weeks and i Feel great! I don't feel bloated at all and I am never hungry, funny how carbs cause us to run out of gas and keep us hungry isn't it? I had major success with this years ago after a surgery and yes it's the easiest to me
