Shocking weight loss this for me this week. 6 lbs and I only had a goal of losing 16 TOTAL over the course of this diet! Here's what I'd like to share with anyone who wants some info on high fat-low carb. You HAVE to up your % of fat intake somewhere north of 60% of total daily calories. I have been low-carbing for 4 years and have had moderate success with weight loss, and GREAT results with my blood work in terms of improving cholesterol and triglycerides. I never had enough trust that upping the fats was the key. Well I reduced protein to about 35% of my daily calorie intake, while keeping my carbs at 40 grams or fewer (which admittedly isn't easy to do) and holy crow, the weight FLEW off this week. I weighed in at 203 on Sunday and am at 197 today. Also NO booze whatsoever. That is key. Maybe a glass of wine or two on the weekend, but along with upping thew fat, I had NO alcohol.
If you're a low-carber and have hit some plateaus and got discouraged (as I did). Give this a try. It sure worked for me.
