Low carbs is the best way to lose weight hands down. I lost 50lbs. That was 5 years ago and am still down. The best is you can cheat and just go back to low carbs without missing a beat.
I don’t follow it like I should, because, well I really like chocolate and ice cream as well as red wine. I have been pereptually overweight 10 pounds since I met my wife 20 years ago this week. She cooks and makes our food daily, left by myself, I just won’t eat and can easily lose the 10 pounds extra in 2 weeks if she wasn’t around.
