Millaburg, one of the stumbling blocks to going "all the way" with low carb, is all the information you have been absorbing over the last umpteen years. Unfortunately, with the new research, what we have been told is a big fat lie.

If you are really serious about losing weight, educate yourself on the physiology of nutrition.

There are many resources on this forum to help you learn that "fat is not fat" and "has many calories."

A low carb diet is designed to switch your body from relying on carbohydrates for energy to relying on fats. So, if you can't eat carbohydrates, you are left with fat and protein. Period.

Good luck. Read as many threads as you can handle at a time and look up all the good references people provide.

A low carb life style is based upon science - not guesses.
