Hi everyone. I'm new to the forum and I come with roughly 150 pounds to lose. I'm currently 332lbs, but my highest weight was 400 pounds. In the last 2 days, I started the Warrior Diet. I was wondering if any others have had long term success with this way of eating? So far I like it. I feel very energetic during the day and I don't feel guilty about eating at night.

HI! Welcome to the TDC and good luck on your weight loss journey. I am not familiar with that particular plan that you are on, but glad to hear you are enjoying it and feeling energetic!

Welcome to the forums and the TDC. I, too, am not familiar with that plan, but wish you all the best on your success.

Keep up the good work.

That plan's a new one on me as well, but welcome and best wishes.

The Warrior Diet is a controversial diet created by former Penthouse (magazine) editor and former Israeli Special Forces soldier Ori Hofmekler and marketed by Dragon Door. He created it based upon his own personal experiences, expanded upon by his opinions of how warriors ate (namely the Romans, similar to Spartan Health, though others are referred to), why their methods were effective, how these methods can be adapted to the modern age, and reasons he thinks these methods are more effective than the more scientific and common methods of dieting.

The diet has a daily feeding cycle of "undereating" during the day and "overeating" at night. He has based this upon his perception of how warriors used to eat, grazing lightly throughout the day and gorging themselves at night. The "Undereating Phase" supposedly maximizes the sympathetic nervous system's (SNS) fight or flight reaction to stress, thereby promoting alertness resulting in energy generation and ultimately fat burning.

I got this off the internet. This doesn't really sound like a low carb woe to me but then I haven't read the book either.

Welcome 1meal, the diet sounds interesting from Joefolks description of it, I'll be interested to see how you do. Is the eating in the evening low carb?
You might want to check out the thread in the buddies/challenges section about Intermittant Fasting, kind of sounds like that and it looks like a lot of people are having success and enjoying it.
Wishing you Lots of Weight Loss!! Lori
