And if pork rinds are any indication, this is one oddball diet.

pork rinds = 0 carbs

Ive had a weight problem all my life - my cultural diet doesnt help - (heavy pasta diet) - Ive lost weight before - only to gain it back - however Ive been on this one since 10/17 and have lost 16 pounds so far.

Gained 4 # for thanksgiving - but quickly lost it when I went back to work

I enjoy a tim hortons icced cappucino for breakfast - small bag of fritos (20 mg carbs) ...chinese food (no rice or eggroll) or meatballs for lunch.... and salads - chicken or meat for dinner

Its been super easy and has been a slow sustainable diet ..absolutely no bread, sweets, pasta etc Im presently at 272# - and hope to get down to my fighting weight of 195#.

My wife tried the same diet - didnt lose a pound

When you lose a little more weight the 20mg in the Frito's will be a problem. To keep going you'll need to keep the carbs to about 25mg a day.

251 last Christmas, 214 now. Nearly 6'-3" tall.
