I have been doing high protein diet no carbs but feel just the same if not more, why?

Question

I usually lose quite quickly when I cut out carbs, getting desperate now?

Answer 1

NO carbs? Well, that's not a diet, that a Duncan Yo-Yo! Your poor brain! It's the only organ that runs only on carbohydrates.

You seem to indicate that you lose weight quickly when you cut out the carbs. Is the reverse true? Do you gain weight when you eat carbs? Do you like carbs?

If so, then you need to learn how to incorporate them into your diet. In the proper portion sizes, complex carbohydrates, fruits and vegetables can be the base of a diet geared towards weight reduction and maintenance. I honestly eat 6 servings of grains (mainly fiber-rich whole grains), 5 servings of fruit, and 5 servings of veggies in my current maintenance mode - weight hasn't fluxuated by more than 4 pounds in the last year on this plan.

Change your diet habits, and you will never go "on" or "off" a diet again.
