I know ill get a ton of mixed opionons on this but whats your opinion of low carbing?

My whole lapband team does low carbs. We all are on high Protein low carbs. Carbs turn to sugar. Sugar turns to fat. Protein keeps you full and is good for your muscle, after 4 years, I slipped some carbs in, big mistake on my part. Wishing you good luck.

When I took the huge step of surgery I swore off "diets". I wanted to eat to live. So that's worked for me. I eat by the grand design of the research: protien, veg, fruit, complex carbs. I find that when I do this the numbers are already taken care of.

Everything I eat is paired with Protein.

No more food obsessions.

No counting. Just logging for protein.

I'm so over food.

I drink my fluids.

I work out. I eat complex carbs before I work out and eat Proteins within 20 minutes of finishing.

I don't maintain complicated. That was proven pre WLS. For me, this is not complicated. I trust it. It works for me.

i love this post on a friends blog. bear in mind, she was never morbidly obese, but did go from eating a sugar heavy, low fat, high carb, vegetarian diet to a mostly paleo, no processed foods diet over the course of seven years. she has been searching for "the answer." and was surprised at what she discovered. http://mamasweeds.com/2014/02/23/the-pendulum-and-why-i-broke-up-with-low-carb/
