  • Water.. Have fun fasting...
  • Exercise contains no calories, fat or carbs. Enjoy!
  • Meat - but meat has fat. No carbs in bacon. Do not try to diet eating bacon unless you're trying to gain wt. LOL
  • This is what I've done and it worked for me... 12 days on - 2 days off Breakfast 1/2 Grapefruit or 4 oz. Grapefruit Juice (unsweetened) 2 Eggs (any style) 2 Slices Bacon Lunch 1/2 Grapefruit or 4 oz. Grapefruit Juice (unsweetened) Meat (any style, any amount) Salad (any kind of dressing) Dinner 1/2 Grapefruit or 4 oz. Grapefruit Juice (unsweetened) Meat (any style, any amount) (fish may be substituted for meat) Vegetables (any green, yellow, or red vegetables cooked in butter or any seasoning) Bed Time Snack 1 glass tomato juice or 1 glass Skim milk Vegetables Allowed Red onions, green onions, bell peppers, radishes, cucumbers, broccoli, spinach, lettuce, cabbage, carrots, peas. Vegetables to Avoid White onions, potatoes, celery. Find other high protein meal ideas here. Instructions 1. At any meal you may eat until you are full - until you can’t eat any more. 2. Don’t eliminate anything from the diet, especially don’t skip bacon at breakfast or omit salads. It is the combination of foods that burn fat. 3. The grapefruit is important because it acts as a catalyst that starts the burning process. 4. Cut out caffeine - it affects the insulin balance that hinders the burning process. Try to limit to 1 cup per meal at mealtime. 5. Don’t eat between meals. If you eat the combination of food suggested you will not be hungry. 6. Note that the diet completely eliminates sugar and starches, which are lipids and form fat. Fat doesn’t form fat; it helps burn it. You can fry food in butter and use butter generously on vegetables. 7. Do not eat desserts, bread, and white vegetables or sweet potatoes. You may double or triple helpings of meat, salad, or vegetables. Eat until you are stuffed. The more you eat of the proper combination of food, the more you lose.
  • carbs are found in things like bread, cereal, fruits and pasta. many believe that these high carb foods are the reason people gain weight. A low carb diet normally consist of a high meat diet. foods you can have would be any meat, cheese, vegtebles, butter, eggs, tofu, jello. you will loose weight extremely fast(I've done it before) just check all the nutritional fact on the foods you eat and try not to exceed 20 carbs a day. good luck.
  • Its not so much about carbs versus no carbs as it is about good carbs versus bad carbs. the media has demonized carbs as something you should stay away from completely, but carbohydrates are what gives you energy and if you are exercising you need to take in good carbs. The difference is complex carbs and there are simple carbs. Simple, or sugary carbs, break down faster and if not used immediatly for fuel, are stored as fat. Complex carbs are slower digesting carbs and therefore take longer to digest and provide you with a constant supply of energy until your next meal. All carbs are tunred into glucose (sugar) in your liver. Starchy and sugary carbs raise your glycogen levels right away and complex carbs do not. Simple carbs include white rice, white bread, some pastas,white potatoes. any refined carbs and anything sugary such as candy. Even fruits and fruit juice has lots simple carbs, but people hear fruit and think its good for them. It is, but it depends on the time. Having some simple carbs that are low in fat is good in the morning or right after a workout, but not in the nighttime where you will not burn them off. Complex carbs are whole grains like brown rice, wheat bread, oatmeal, sweet potatoes. But if you are trying to lose weight, even these should be restricted. I suggest taking in no more than 30 grams of carbs with each meal and as the day goes on, taking in less and less so that your last meal has no carbs.
  • try chewing gum (non sugar) instead of taking snacks. also, exercise more. hope this helps
