I am happy to let the scientists battle this one out! I will say that I have lost 20 pounds now in about 8 weeks, and my wife has lost about 10. I had way more to lose before starting a diet that is higher in fat, filled with vegetables, and some fruits than she did. It is working for me.
I have also increased the amount of greens in my diet significantly - I now have them at all three meals. And I am drinking a significant amount of water (and managing potassium and sodium levels appropriately). I have tried about every combination of approaches to losing weight that involve increasing my activity or decreasing my calorie intake, and I was never able to lose any significant weight, and was miserable when I was trying. I am not a scientist, and when people start prying at me about why I am doing it and whether it's truly healthy, I just let them know it's working for me, that my body seems to do a better job of processing this food, and I have never felt better. And, to add to the riv content of this thread, none of this would have happened if Keven didn't give my wife the Taubes book when we visited HQ. Kasey needed something to do while we were talking about components for my about-to-be-purchased Sam, and was reading it, and, when we were leaving, Keven gave her a copy. She read it, suggested I read it, I did, and we started down the road. Pretty awesome. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
