Question by Crystal O: I am switching from a low carb diet to a low fat diet diet. Do you think I will gain weight?
I have been on a low carb diet for seven months and I’ve lost 25 lbs. I have pleateued at the same weight for about 3 months. I want to try and exercise more but I find I have no energy to run as much as I used to before low carb. I also miss fruits and whole grains, such as cereal, and I need more fiber in my diet (its very hard to use the bathroom on low carb if you know what I mean). I know I lost weight on low carb and I’m scared to death if I switch back I will regain. I’m just so confused! And if I do add carbs back should I still limit them? Like only at breafkast and lunch? Someone who is nowledgeable please help!! Thanks so much.

Answer by angel01
you should really limit your carb intake at night. Heavy foods at night are not good. still eat your carbs and enjoy low fat. just remember low fat doesn’t always mean its healthier for you.

Question by Giada: Has anyone tried a full liquid diet for weight loss?
What sort of things did you drink and how much weight did you lose?
Best answer:
Answer by Robertas D
Personally I haven’t tried this, but I’ve heard some really bad things about this one.
The bad thing about these kinds of diets is that your body doesn’t get enough nutrients to make sure that it runs smoothly and efficiently.
I know that this sounds like loads of BS, but apart from water you also need proteins to make sure that you don’t lose your lean muscle mass, you need fats to make sure that your cell and hormonal production runs smoothly and you need complex carbohydrates to make sure that you have enough energy.
I know that you’re looking for a specific answer about these liquid diets, but from my experience I would recommend to literally focus on the reduction of both caloric and simple carbohydrate intake.
One move step at a time, don’t look for shortcuts, do your cardio and baby – you’ll get the body you want

Answer by SubJ
Eat only when hungry and not more than thrice a day. Include plenty of uncooked vegetables and fruits in each meal, preferably 50%. To have more satisfaction out of ur food, Chew each morsel at least 32 times. This will also activate ur body to generate signals of hunger/fullness. Obey these signals.
Nothing other than water in between.
Take light exercises and brisk walks for 30 min.regularly preferably twice a day.
U will achieve what u have not even dreamt and that too in a reasonable time and hassle free.
Be patient and not in a hurry.
U cannot choose spots for reduction.
This schedule can be adopted on permanent basis to lead a healthy life and maintain weight.

Question by : Starting a vegan liquid diet for weight loss, any tips or suggestions?
I’ve been vegan for a couple years, im 5’1 and 100 lbs. I’d like to loose 5 lbs. I plan to liquid fast for 1-2 weeks. Ive been drinking miso soup, juicing fruits and vegetables, etc. I also plan to buy some super fruit& veggie green powder for drinks. Any ideas on how I can get protein through low calorie liquids other than miso soup?
Best answer:
Answer by skadeglad
don’t.
a liquid diet is too low in calories. in fact, it’s deficient in pretty much every kind of nutrient except for carbohydrates, and the juicing helps separate carbs from fiber, fat and other nutrients which ordinarily would slow digestion.
carbs hit your system and spike your insulin. insulin stimulates lipoprotein lipase, which shoves all the sugar you just ate into your fat cells. you will certainly lose weight, but it will all be in your muscles. your metabolism will tank and you’ll feel crappy all the time. when you return to a normal, sane diet, you will regain all the weight you lost as fat, and then some.
seriously, this is a horrible idea and there is no reason to do it.
