“Bob, please put me on your ping list. I went onto intermittent fasting (16 - 8) two weeks ago and tomorrow plan to add low-carb diet onto the regimen.”

You got it and nice job!

Your diet depends upon our genes and what your ancestors ate.

Everyone ca benefit from cutting processed foods and cooking their own potions and vegetables.

I follow the JERF diet - Just Eat Real Food

Oh, one more thing - limit sugar of all kinds.

You just don’t get hungry on keto and don’t overeat. It’s why so many do intermittent fasting without evening knowing they do (lunch and dinner only)

I have had good results following Trim Healthy Mama, gradual weight loss of about 40 lbs and a lot less inflammation.
The basic premise behind THM is that most of us really don’t have a lifestyle that needs two fuel sources at every meal- ie both carbs and fats, so we burn one and store the other. Separating them by three hours, getting some protein with every meal, and avoiding frankenfoods. Not as aggressive as Keto, and more sustainable over the long haul in my experience

Thanks for your kind and detailed answer. Still chicken to try, but easing into it sounds doable.
