Even with low carb, I struggle to lose weight.

But, I have noticed that by eliminating carbs, I also eliminated the bloated stomach I had after meals. I eliminated joint pain in my wrists and knees and ankles. I believe I have avoided diabetes by going low carb. Diabetes plagued both my mother and grandmother. And, I believe that I have avoided this blood cancer from growing by being low carb. My cholesterol is at near “perfect” levels, neither too low, nor too high.

I don’t find it a difficult diet. Lots of fresh veggies, cheeses, real butter, cream cheese, and meat. There’s a whole lot of leeway with that menu.

However, weight loss is still on the slow side for me.
