So my wife and I are trying the low carb no carb diet.  We have been on the diet for about two weeks.  With what I would think good success.  The pictures of the smoked sausage got me thinking about this diet because it is something I am allowed to eat. 

First have any of you done this diet and if so what did you do to fill the cravings of a potato chip or toast with your eggs.  I made some pork chops last and I boiled some cauliflower and then mashed it up with butter a little cream and parmision cheese, that was really good almost thought  I was eating a mashed potato. 

I know one thing is for sure I am learning real quick I am not a big fan of cheese, or I could never be a cheese snob.  Boy some of them I have tried lately are hard to get down. 

So if you have tried it and have any good tricks for something sweet or just a little different snack or meal filler let me know.

No tips for the low carb sorry and good luck. I just started today my second round of the HCG. Diet sucks but it is 100% mental and if you can get through that your golden. My last round was a loss of 20lbs in 21 days, the next two weeks after that was done I lost 4 pounds total making it 24. Over the last two months I put 4 back on so it stayed off pretty well. Started round two today for another 21 days and hope to see the same results and then I will be done.

If this low carb dont work out take a look at the HCG, might be something to try.
 

Good Luck and Good Fishin'

I really dont recomend the no carb diet. It works, there is no doubt about it. I went on it for 4 months, lost 14 lbs in the first 2 weeks and 20 lbs in the first month for a total of 40lbs over the 4 months.
 After giving up everything I love..i.e. bread, beer, wine, ice cream for 4 months I slipped off the diet, and gained nearly all of the weight back in less than 3 months.
 Here is what I recommend. Losing weight is about burning more calories in a day than you take in, period. I keep track of everything I eat and ensure that at the end of the day, my caloric intake is less than my body needs + enough of a deficit that lets me burn 2 lbs per week.
EAT PROTIEN! I eat up to 180 grams of protein a day. Protein is the fuel that your body needs. Not to mention that as you lose weight you wont lose muscle that usually comes from dieting.
The only carbs I eat are from fruits, beans and dairy. I avg about 90-120 grams of carbs per day
 Eat good fat! Nuts, fish, olive oil.
 Fiber is awesome. I get 30 grams a day
 Splurge once every two weeks. Studies have shown that after being on a diet your body becomes more efficient at using what you put in your body, splurging every 2 weeks keeps your body guessing.  The wife and I go out to eat every other Saturday, I have a huge ribeye, as much wine as I want to drink, plus desert. 

Exercise with a good mix of cardio and resistance training.  If you cant do both, IMO weights offer the best bang for the buck, provided you are eating enough protein.  The more muscle you have, the more fat you burn.

The low carb diet is a recipe for disaster.  The atkins diet, when done properly can work great, limits trans fats, saturated fits etc..etc...just going low carb is not a good idea.  So under a low carb diet (not atkins) you could eat a pound of butter and a ring of sausage washed down with a can of crisco, and you would be within the guidelines.  

The only diet that works long term is one that I invented myself:

DON'T EAT SO MUCH YOU FAT PIG!  

it works, trust me. 

Also the time honored method of

"if it doesn't grow in a field or $hit in a field don't eat it'' works good too......

Ice man has got it down pretty well. I have lost 107 lbs in the last year. First off it depends if you are on a diet or you are trying to better your lifestyle. Diets don't work! Changing the way you eat does. I really read alot on what i could and couldn't eat. suprsingly there are things that are good for you that you would not think(like potatoes are not all that bad) and animal fats, as long as you excersise. Some carbs are not bad for you as long as they are easy to break down and do not convert to fat. 


also empty calories kill you. unfortunately alot of things we like have that (like most alcohol although if you can stand bacardi its not to bad:) 

If you dont eat until you are full there is a good chance what your doing will not work. so try to find out what you can and can't eat and you should be fine. got alot of tips if you want anymore info.

Do what Ice Man said. I started a mix of diet and working out similar to him back in July and have lost 20 lbs and have been able to keep it off even when I took a month break from the gym when I was sick. I could have lost weight probably quicker, but I feel this was healthier than just completely cutting out carbs. Like for breakfast I have one egg and a whole grain piece of toast, it's all about a  good ratio of protein to carbs.
The kill is the satisfying, indeed essential, conclusion to a successful hunt. But, I take no pleasure in the act itself. One does not hunt in order to kill, but kills in order to have hunted. Then why do I hunt? I hunt for the same reason my well-fed cat hunts...because I must, because it is in the blood, because I am the decendent of a thousand generations of hunters. I hunt because I am a hunter.- Finn Aagard

The no carb low carb deal is for a short period of time to change the persons metabolism and then after three weeks four weeks or so then it is a balancing act to reintroduce the acceptable amount of carbs that allows you to still drop a couple pounds or maintain the disered weight.  I agree with the empty calories and I tell you what my eating habbits sure have changed I am hardly ever hungery and at times need to remind my self just to have a little snack.  I know fad diets never work I am more or less doing what my wife has researched and I have started reading the book myself.

That is the one thing I have questioned with all this is the inablility to eat natural items such as fruit.  But as mentioned this is a short time that a person needs to change their habbits with the carbs and then after the desired loss or a period of time then it is paramount to find the proper balance to maintain the weight loss.

I'm not a big fan of no carb diets. First of all, what is your cholesterol and more importantly what is your hdl and ldl? Assuming your weight is stable at present you will need to cut out roughly 3500 calories/ wk to lose 1 lb. of body fat. That's a 500 calorie deficit /day through a combination of diet and exercise. This figure can expand greatly with greater diet modification and more aggressive exercise. AS was stated above a combination of strength training and cardio is recomended. IF you just lose weight through diet control or if you only do a little cardio and your body build at present resembles a large pear by doing only the former your result will be a smaller pear. Something to curb those cravings would be making yourself a smoothie in a blender . Use skim or soy milk, a protein mix, either isolated whey or soy and add strawberries, cantelope,honey dew etc. Also those urges can be held at bay by doing a few sit ups, push ups etc when they occur,...usually at night. Without carbs you will have a very lazy workout as well. That's what gives you energy. You must modify your lifestyle to keep the weight off. This will come but it takes time and a perseverance. The rewards are well worth it!

Heres a diet that has been proven to work:

1) Eat less

2) Exercise more

3) Stick with it

(number 3 is where most people fail...)

Jiffy,
Good point. *l* If you're eating until you're no longer hungry at mealtime you're overeating. The brain is usually running about a twenty minute lag in regard to telling you you're full. Sit back , drink some water and talk instead of loading up the plate again.

 As a future health professional ( chiropractor).... say away from low carb diet.... starts out good for the first 4 weeks like you said..... but after that you really have to change it up. BE CAREFUL with how much PROTEIN you take in.... if protein is not used up it will turn to fat, thus slowing the weight loss process. SO many people have huge numbers on protein.... if you are 200-225 pounds.... AND working out hard.... you should not be over 135 g of protein per day....  excess protein will cause you to bog down and feel like crap and it does nothing for you.... there are only 3 things you need to watch on a diet.... Total Calories, Total G of fat, and protein. If you weigh 200 pounds.... you should be taking in 1850-1900 calories per day... this will set you up for a 1 pound a week loss..... keep the fat in G below 30 for each day... and protein around 115-130..... I weight 220 pounds... and I maintain all of my muscle mass at 105 G per day. Again, all depends on what you weigh! For exercise.... straight cardio is not the best for losing weight.... sprint workouts are.... sprints burn off the sugars in your body, which are the first things that turn to fat. A five minute jog to warm up, stretch... .and between 10-15  100 yard dashes per day.... will burn more calories and more fat than a 30-40 minute straight cardio on the tredmil. Change your workout up every other day and keep your body guessing.   Anything else , pm me!

Easier said then done. I lost 40 pounds this way and gained back about 2/3 of it as I tried maintaining that "balance" before I decided I needed a more permanent fix. I don't log my caloric intake and output like some do above, but like them I exercise daily (weights, basketball) and watch my portions now, and I avoid the things we all know are full of useless calories...fast food, junk food, sweets, soda, etc. I still don't eat a lot of carbs and I do take in a lot of protein, but that's because I'd rather have wild game or fish than pizza or pasta any day of the week. I don't avoid bread or even sugar, but I don't eat much of either as I would rather get my carbs from corn, potatoes, fruit, etc. One needs to have a little self control around the holidays and big buffets, but if you are serious about being healthier that shouldn't be difficult. Since doing this, I am 50 pounds lighter and have kept that weight off for several years...and I still drink as much Busch LIght as I want!

You are on the right track by making changes, but I caution you about using the low carb/no carb as your first step. I would say that backfires on more people than it works for and it is twice as deflating when you lose the weight and then look in the mirror and realize you gained it back. Good luck either way.

Where do you fit in all the amazing beers this world has to offer?? How is the brewing going?  What do you have in the works at this time?


I allow myself 1 or 2 beers a day and I compensate for the calories by consume less food throughout the day or by exercising more.  Sometimes, like on super bowl sunday, i just throw everything out the window, but I seem to do pretty good this way.
 

If you ferment your beer properly and allow it to finish dry, there is actually very little residual sugar left in the beer, but alot of highly caloric alcohol, which doesn't effect blood sugar levels luckily. 

I currently have a fresh hop IPA in the fermenter that uses copius amounts of hops from the 2010 harvest in the Yakima valley.  Columbus, Centennial and Cascade hops to be exact. 

On the to do list is a Belgian Farmhouse style ale with yeast derrived from a monestary in belgium, oats, honey and belgian malts.  

mmmm......beer. 

I have also come to the realization that I have two kids, married, full time job and I am getting older.  It is not realistic for me to maintain 7-10% body fat and live a body builder style of workout regimen and diet.  I still workout 5 days a week and am stronger than I ever have been, but i am not as hardcore. 

The best advice you can give anybody trying a fad or crash style diet like the original poster, is to just read up, and get yourself educated on healthy living and nutrition,  then you can set the groundwork for a healthy lifestyle that is easy to maintain.  Permanent weight loss isn't something that happens by doing a fad diet for 3 months....it is the result of a series of good decisions and a lifestyle change that is maintained for a very long time...like forever.  Choosing fresh vegatables over french fries doesn't seem like much once a week, but choosing the lesser of two evils, every time over a long period of time will ad up.  My buddies always look at me funny in the mornings when we go fishing, instead of coffee and doughnuts or junk food,  I will grab a muscle milk and an apple......
