[QUOTE="Resurgam, post: 1773163, member: 355878"] The problem is the carbs - not fat, not red meat - its the carbs. All that stuff about cholesterol which is now turning out to be just plain wrong has caused so many problems - yes there are some unlucky people who see their cholesterol go up - but they have a very specific problem, ordinary people eat low carb and high fat - just like Dr Atkins advised, and their cholesterol goes down, their weight goes down - I have not even tried to lose weight, just to keep my blood glucose in the right zone - and I have had to replace all my clothes with smaller ones - even my shoes became loose. You really can eat some fairly ordinary foods - not bread though - but how about roast chicken with courgette sweet pepper and mushrooms and a salad? You can drink spirits or dry wines - dilute with fizzy water if you want to make them less intense, or last longer. Once you get used to eating low carb you should find that your energy increases father than reduces - you had some bad advice before, you need fats as well as protein for good health, but there are no essential carbs.
