My husband and I started the "Carbohydrate Addicts" diet at the beginning of June. He has lost 25 lbs and I have lost two dress sizes.
His blood pressure has gone from 138/75 to 118/80. Much more significantly, he has lost edema that made it painful to walk.
The daily "reward" meal that allows carbs has been a real life saver, since I can still have my Gewurztraminer and unwind.
Although the doctors who wrote it do not allow sugar substitutes that affect the pancreas, I have been able to satisfy my sweet tooth with stevia, from GNC. I don't think I could stick to it without sweetened iced tea.
