I was still surprised to learn that after two years, dieters lost an average of 7.3 pounds on the low-fat regimen, 10 pounds on the Mediterranean diet and 12 pounds on a mostly vegetarian version of the low-carbohydrate Atkins diet. Let me change this to I was surprised that they ONLY lost 7.3 - 10 - and 12 pounds in 2 years.
The low-carbohydrate diet excelled at improving the cholesterol profile, reducing the total cholesterol-to-good cholesterol ratio by 20 percent, compared to just 12 percent in the low-fat diet. For diabetics, the Mediterranean diet was best for lowering fasting glucose levels.
We can lose weight without starving. How?
Eat enough – of the good stuff.
4 Guiding Principles
Real food is good.
No fake, toxic, food-like substances.
Fat is good, including saturated fat from coconut and happy animals.
Refined carbs are evil: Sugar, sweets, alcohol and refined grains (white bread, pasta, rice, etc). Even "good" carbs (whole grains, beans, starchy vegetables and fruit) may prevent weight loss, depending on your biochemistry.
Starving destroys metabolism and creates fat.
