Message: <blockquote data-quote="msmi1970" data-source="post: 879560" data-attributes="member: 129795">Metabolism is mighty complicated & there will always be many other differing factors from individual to individual.I have struggled with weight issues for over 35 years. Default approach was low calorie and/or exercise which made me feel good but also made me ridiculously hungry & was murder on my knees. It was never sustainable due to my lack of "willpower" & because I felt I was "genuinely hungry".In 35 years, I have never tried Low Carb High Fat until last year. Honestly, it was like a eureka moment. You can't starve your body. You need to feed it the right foods, in sufficient quantities when your body asks for it. I lost 5 stone in about 8 months without a lick of exercise. It has not been all plain sailing but certainly easier than anything i have ever tried. & when my metabolism slowly fixed itself, i no longer mistake cravings for hunger, as i no longer have cravings. I am now trying to tackle my habitual snacking issue as that has slowed down my weight loss.</blockquote>
