Has anybody else read this book?
My husband has lost 45 pounds in just a few months by first eliminating sugar from his coffee and tea, and then by eliminating wheat/sugar/most carbs. He eats vegetables, sure, but tries to keep his total carb count under 30 grams a day. I've been on a variant of this diet for close to a decade now, using only artificial sweeteners that don't cause an insulin reaction (like xylitol and stevia and Splenda) and limiting my starchy carbs to about 30 grams a day. I don't lose weight at all if I go no-starch, as he does. I seem to need a few carbs, so I try for low glycemic index ones, like buckwheat and quinoa. I have just recently gone no wheat, so we will see what that does or doesn't do for me.
