Low Carb has been life changing to me...... [View all]

Almost back to my High School weight.

Never hungry.

first 2 weeks I was < 20 carbs a day, now 40.

Only exercise is walking 10,000 steps a day. Started at 5,000. Then 7,500.

Read a book called "Why we get fat and what to do about it" by Gary Taubes.

Just an FYI for people who want to look into it.
