ooo I’m going to try that even though I have to lose weight LOL. O heck a little weight gain won’t hurt.
They’re pretty rich; but if you do them right, it’s mostly olive and cheese. I don’t think they’ll be fattening.
I need to lose weight, too; but you can’t stick with any diet, if it deprives you of all pleasure.
Husband Unit has lost 65 pounds over two-three years, eating wonderfully on, first, the South Beach diet, and then the Paleo diet. He’s kept it all off for a long time, and is as thin as he was as a young man in his ‘twenties; but he doesn’t deprive himself.
Sometimes he wants a big plate of pasta, with his home-made sauce; so he has it. But generally, he sticks with salads, meat, poultry, fish, and steamed veggies.
Everyone is different, but I’ve found that low-carb is the easiest, least painful way to lose weight; and once you get there, you don’t have to be too strict about it, just a little vigilant.
