[QUOTE="sunspots, post: 568217, member: 41185"] I wonder if the hype around low carb raises our expectations a bit. I too started in order to regulate my BGs but looked at weight too because a decrease would have been a lovely bonus. I'm in week 4 and have suddenly shifted 4lbs in a few days (increased fibre may have helped ...). I've also started skipping meals though. If I'm not hungry I just won't bother. I haven't been counting calories as I reckon my hunger will be honest with me and it seems to be working. Not having that deprived feeling either (as in low calorie diet) as when I [I]am [/I]hungry I can eat nice, filling fatty things like bacon, cheese or homemade ice cream. I'd suggest maybe it's worth skipping, intermittent fasting they call it, but being less calorie conscious at other times. Whatever, give anything you try at least a month and if it isn't working do something different. ;) [/QUOTE]
