How many of you are on the LOW CARB DIET?
 

I was on it last year and i lost 40lbs Really! This year i gain half of it back. Now I'm trying to get back on it and it's so much harder :)

you're going to die

I'm not overweight,but I eat everything that's bad for you...fuck it..If I'm going to die of a massive heart attack ...so be it..I'm going to eat what I want

Until you get a little older and start worying about your health or old enough to develop an allergic reaction to carbohydrates. Which ever happens first.

I'm almost 43..if I have another 15 years..I will be grateful

thats not a good diet to do

I tried it and I turned into Uber-Bitch from the Seventh Level of Hell.

Not a good plan. Now I'm doing the "eat what I like in moderation and get up off my ass" diet. :thumbsup

Yep, gotta enjoy life while were still alive... Im going to eat a nice juicy Rib Eye steak and garlic mashed potatoes :)

Been L-carbing for a year now. I drink lots of water and check the scales, if I gain weight I cut back on the carbs for a few days.

Heard that second time around is a bit harder to lose the weight but it is possible. :)

well, i'm 45 and hope to have another 45.

I cut carbs out back in the early 90's when everyone said it would lead to a sure death.

I feel so good I think i'm growing younger... then again it could be my mid life crisis

the low carb diet killed my father..

and raped my mother :(

I'm on the prison diet. Bread and water. It's working much better than my ethiopian diet of just air and air. :1orglaugh

Seriously though, the way I've lost weight is by just eating less every day and drinking more water and cutting out pop.

:1orglaugh

atkins diet is a proven killer

FUCK ATKINS

been there done that , gained it all back + some :helpme

You're not?

just try and eat complex carbs and don't overdo it. Ketosis (which occurs when under 50g carbs a day) is actually a state of your body where it releases toxic into your body... it's not good

:1orglaugh

Just don't eat so much shit and go to the gym. It works great.

I do the low carb thing. I don't eat processed meats though, I only eat vegans. Their diets are so fucking pure you know? So they have this really tender, toxin free meat. Mmm Vegan, it's what's for dinner.

Proof?

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

Im on it. Down a LOT. :)

Yeah Low carb diet gives you cancer, and heart problems, its gay....I lost like 60lbs in 2 months doing yoga for 10 hours a week....I should do that again....

open a science book... seriously before you dive into new shit that's being promoted with millions of bucks try and do some research!

Ignorance is the #1 death cause!

I'm not saying low carb is bad... I do it myself but try to keep around the 100-150gr a day and that's low enough.

Here's an Idea what if you just eat regular portions and exercise a little? You will lose weight just burn more calories than you take in easy as that... The low carb thing will help you in the short run but in the long run it hurts the heart...

i've been watchin how what i eat lately, and making sure that im burning off as many calories as i take in. :thumbsup

carbs=energy low or now carbs=low or no energy..sorry..but the whole carb thing is insane..

alot of factors that contribute to people being overwieght (besides medical problems) are the amount they eat and when they eat versus how much they do to expend that energy..what ever that activity may be...its really common sense and self control.

Dang, you are not lucky! :(

lol i can totally identify with that

2 years from now all you low carb assholes are gonna suffer exploding hearts.

i tried the low carb thing, makes me very angry and grouchy, now i am on the eat whatever diet, just not so much and try to take the stairs, go swimming and maybe i will even go to the gym! at least that way it will stay more or less off??but how to loose some a bit faster?????

*_*

Alergic to carbs? Is that even possible? That nearly sounds like an alergy to air. Does a bubble come next?

Now seriously as someone pointed out. If you just eat regular portions within your daily recomendation and do some (not even moderate) excersize you will loose weight.

I do think high fructose sugars/syrups are evil though and do consume as little of those as possible. Other than that I eat a healthy regular diet that is seasonally based and never have had even close to a weight problem. Hell when I had some roommates long ago they all went from overweight to regular weight while living with me, since I did the majority of cooking and shopping. It is nice to be able to splurge on occassion and eat stuff you should not consume yet just desire, and we do so.

the LOW (not cutting them out, just reduce them) carb thing is a great way to lose weight, but nothing beats a proper diet and excercise

why would anyone want to lose weight?

I was on it and lost 50 pounds in a nine month period I didn't even exercise once...
That was over a year ago and I have managed to keep it all off through regular exercise and eating a normal balanced diet

Atkins kicks ass :thumbsup
