It happens that I've been trying out this diet for little bit over a week! I've had some good results.

Some of my diabetes symptoms have gotten better since I started this diet. My energy levels have also been much higher.

The only problems I've had are with what they call the "low-carb flu!" It's not a real flu. Instead, these are flu-like symptoms that you can get as your body is adjusting to the low-carb, high-fat diet.

So, whenever I get these "flu" symptoms now, I do eat some carbs until the flu symptoms go away. However, with each day, I seem to need to do this less and less, as my body seems to be adjusting to burning more fat.

Thanks again, Tom! Are you doing this diet yourself?

If you are doing this diet yourself, or if anyone else is, I would love to hear about your results! I'll report what my results are, too, as I continue with the diet.

Best wishes,

Dien

I hope others enjoy it as much Dien. Yes, I am attempting to do the program. It seems old habits are hard to break especially when you are 70 YO .

If I find more info, I'll post it.

Tom
