Ive been reading obesity books and the conclusion i have is that carbs make you fat and theres no proof that dietary fat causes heart disease. carbs increase your insulin which tells the body to store fat. a diet that is less than 30 grams of carbs daily preferably 20 grams. However, carbs are essential for the body to process Protein correctly otherwise you go into whats called ketosis which is not good at all. I myself follow a low fat low carb lean protein diet. without the excess carbs the body uses the fat to use as energy which is preferable. Listen the food companies are out to make money by creating an epidemic of obese americans. theres too much money involved to correct it and it definitely is political as well. before refined products such as four and sugar like 150 years ago there was no such thing as these current diseases including heart disease and diabetes. for thousands of years people lived off a high fat meaty diet and there was none of these western diet diseases to speak of. Its up to the individual to educate themselves on obesity and the local library has all the books on it for free. the food pyramid is wrong to this current day is tells you your biggest daily intake should be carbs and its killing people.

"back in the day" everyone was outside more... people did more manual labor, kids were outside playing/running...now, we have all become sedentary, sitting behind our computers etc; so that doesn't help our modern day world at all either!

If you're eating a low fat, low carb and lean Protein diet...you are or will be going into ketosis.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
