has anyone tried a GI diet (low sugar) did it work for you ? How much did you loose??

Question

I started 3 days ago so far down 4 pounds!!

Answer 1

I do not eat low sugar but NO sugar! Course I eat the Atkins way. It's not a diet but a lifestyle change and it works. No diet ever really works unless you change your eating habits. After a while it becomes a way of life. I have been eating this way for 2 1/2 years.

Answer 2

I actually did a diet that seems to be pretty similar to this two years ago. I lost 85 lbs and so far in 2 years I've only gained back 10 lbs but I don't go over board with sugar still. I eat more protein than carbs and I have my days where I eat more sugar than normal, but you have to watch b/c you will have mood swings when you have a lot of sugar in a day... then you will have to go through sugar withdraws for about three days. I'm trying to get back to a balanced diet and just working out more. But as far as a low sugar diet, it works. Go for natural sugars in fruit, and seriously steer clear of sugar substitutes as much as possible.

Diets do not work. 99% of people gain the weight back. Here is how it works. No one teaches the animal what to eat and what not to eat. He knows instinctively what to eat. Humans also have the same instinct. The way it works is just eat whatever tastes good and that will be healthy for you and non-fattening. That is why a baby tastes everything. So again whatever tastes good, is good for you. This is why you will spit out spoiled milk.

But wait!!! Man has the technology to create rat poison. It tastes like healthy food (good taste) but kills the rat. So man has done that to you. Note- any food unaltered by man (uncooked) that tastes good, is good for you. So if you are stranded in the woods, that is how you know what to eat (cooking changes that). So man has created fake fruit. It tastes like fruit that exists in nature but it is terrrible for health, addictive and fattening called sweets.

So it is natural to like real sweets called fruit, like a baby does, but they have fooled you just like the rat. But they do not want to kill you. They want you to become obese so you will buy lots of their foods. This is called GOOD BUSINESS.
