I have finally found the method that works for me. It is easy, it drops weight fast, and brings down the fasting blood sugar quickly. And I am not hungry! I'm just on my 5th day but I have lost 3 lbs. I got up to 165 lbs over the holidays with average blood sugar of 150. I started this WOE on January 1. So how does this miracle program work for me? It is as simple as taking the total amount of carbs, multiply by 4 to get the equivalent amount of sugar points. Try to keep the total sugar points at 100 or less per day. I have actually lost even on days when the total sugar is 148, but am trying to keep it close to 100.This program was proposed by Jorge Cruise in his book "The 100" published in 2013. One of my resolutions was to weed out my cookbooks/diet books -- I must have a hundred gathered over the last 50 years of trying to find what works for me. I found this book on my shelves and thought it sounded worth a try. It fits with Keto and Intermittent fasting but all I'm doing is keeping the carbs (sugars) close to 100. On the second day my blood sugar had dropped to 78 at bedtime and I ate 5 Herseys kisses. The next morning my blood sugar was 115 and I still weighed 1/2 pound less. I'm not worrying about exercise although I find I have lots more energy -- nice since I'm 81. Will this work for you? We are all different, so who knows, but I will keep on keeping on with it.
