You eat less than 20grams of carbs per day. You have to cut out sugar, bread, pasta, potatoes, stuff like that. You can eat all the meat, cheese, eggs and veggies (except corn and peas) you want. It is the only diet I have been on that I was not hungry. There is no limit on the amount of food you can eat, just on your carb intake. If you get a sweet craving you can have sugar free jello with cool whip. No regular soda though, it is loaded with carbs. The way the diet works is it puts your body into ketosis. It forces it to burn stored fat instead of glucose. Your body processes carbs like it does sugar (as glucose) Your body keeps a 2 day supply of glucose to run off of. If you deplete your body of glucose, it has no choice but to burn the stored fat as energy instead. Result- fast fat loss. |
