I gain weight if I eat anything other than meat, cheese, eggs, and a few greens. It doesn't matter how much of those things I eat, I could stuff myself on bacon and steak and not gain any weight.

But let me add an apple and a cup of yogurt to my diet and watch the fat start coming on. And I feel like people don't believe me, but I'm 47 and I've been through this again and again. My mom says "Just count calories" and I nearly scream at her. (And I'm not normally a screamer.)

Own it. Listen to your body and behave accordingly. It knows better than most of the doctors and scientists.

i’m with you on that

If I buy myself a good steak I may spend more for that one meal, but I am not hungry that night or maybe even the whole next day

good protein is all you need to lose weight

I’m like that; I don’t do well with carbs.
