The thing is, I'm consuming the same foods as I was when I ate anything and when I was on a low fat diet. The only thing that has changed is I'm not eating rice, pasta, potatoes, sugar, and high carb bread. In fact, I'm technically eating better since I'm replacing those things with veggies now. I don't really consider it a diet, more of a lifestyle. When I got hurt the first time I couldn't exercise at all, could barely walk, and I tried to watch what I ate in a low fat way and gained a bunch of weight. This time around I'm sitting on my ass and doing it the low carb way and maintaining my weight with 50-100 carbs a day and losing with 20 carbs a day. It's a slow weight loss but slower is better anyway, no one wants a bunch of skin hanging around. People think that it's all red meat and butter, if you are doing that you are nuts. I might have a hamburger once in awhile but I mostly eat chicken. Lots of salads. You just have to be smart about it.
