[QUOTE="rmz80, post: 1994092, member: 306547"] I would think a number of ideas in this diet could be adapted to low carb use. I run two diets at once. An 1850 Cal diet @ 50% carb. This diet for “break even” weight for no loss or gain. The second is a “treats” diet. To get the treats I mainly use Google Fit on a mobile phone. This tells me the calories used mainly walking (typically 5 miles a day) or cycling. I then have the equivalent treats to the cals used. These are mainly toffees or peanuts. There is also a second aim: ”To ensure I see a minimum set weight at least once a week”. This deals with a slow “creep up” in weight over time. Remember a 3oz gain in weight per week for 18 month is over a stone! On the 1850 cal diet I like lots of swede. As you will know suede is its very low calorie so need loads of it. The problems I can gain 2 lb in weight in one day flat. This weight gain however only lasts about 3 days hence the reason for the slow “creep up” check. In the event of not reaching the minimum weight the second diet stops until it is reached. This second diet idea also takes care of any errors such as wrong cals listed on labels or inaccurate kitchen scales. This diet is quite unusual as it changes if it’s raining outside! [/QUOTE]
