"Going on a low-fat and high carb diet was stupid. Where was your "common sense" in choosing this?
Meat is ENERGY. Of course you would be exhausted!
You should eat the SAME thing you would normally eat, BUT less of it. Got it? FEWER calories, not different ones, just FEWER! Why do you insist on missing the point? Lol."
I did eat meat. That wasn't the issue.
I didn't need to eat the SAME thing I normally ate. I lost weight when I cut grains and sugars from my "normal" diet, and I probably consumed more calories because I ate more fat. But I still lost weight.
If I had already been eating the right diet for me, yes I could have just eaten less. But then again if I had been eating the right diet for my metabolism, I wouldn't have put on the weight in the first place.
Why do you insist on missing the point?
Because your point makes NO sense to me.
Lol. But, if I read you right, and I think I do, you will come up with MORE excuses, more explanations of how it's all the type of carbs/proteins you eat, your sensitivity issues and the "right" diet for your unique metabolism.
You will NOT discuss anything like self-discipline, eating fewer calories of a NORMAL pyramid diet and NOT, definitely NOT exercising. You will NOT go down that road.
And so, you will continue down the same ole road you are on now--and not change.
So, go ahead. Don't listen; go sit on your sofa and have a bag of double chunk chocolate chip cookies, with Diet Pepsi, of course. Bon apetite! Then, go watch T.V. for the rest of the evening.
By the way, I am also a Republican in California. :o) I like our governator. You might ask HIM how to lose weight. He will tell you the same thing I just did...and then you will argue with him too. Oh well.
