I lost "half my size" by getting rid of the toxins in my food and eating "clean." I removed, gmo's chemical additives, colors, flavors, pesticides, hfcs and the like. I also removed toxins from my beauty, cleaning and laundry supplies at the same time. This made a huge difference in my life and allowed me to say goodbye to 135 pounds almost eight years ago. It have never come back.

I eat low carb now, and find it works pretty well. Most of my meat is organ meat or fish. The carbs I eat are normally before I'm going to sleep and act like a sleeping pill now. No wonder I was so sluggish on the pizza and pasta diet I used to eat.

I've heard of the IF idea, but haven't really tried it. I usually only eat a once or twice a day when hunger calls. I never even know what hunger was when I was obese.

What do you eat on the high-carb diet? I don't know if I could do that now, but you never know.
