How Do You Do Lc?


Who was that question aimed at? If it was me - I am certainly eating enough to keep body and soul together. Yes, I eat dairy, and eggs, meat, fish, nuts etc. Loads of vegetables and salad, a small amount of fruit, use coconut oil or butter for frying and slather my salads in extra virgin olive oil. I'm 5' 7", 19 stone (down from over 20 6 weeks ago), aged 52, can walk several miles, though not quickly.

Since six weeks ago I have mostly cut out sugar, potatoes and grains.

Hi and welcome!

My LC method is fairly resistant to anything mathematical. Does my head in. Counting calories was a resounding disaster for over 30 years, and I am left with a few deep seated dislikes for that kind of thinking.

That's exactly how I feel.

You might find now that you've lost a good chunk of weight that something which spiked your BG at the start would not now. OTOH, if you're enjoying what you're eating, no need to change?
