Feeling Better

Ham
Cheese
Fish Baked
Eggs
Green Beans
Chicken Wing
Bacon
Pretty good couple of days on this new system I feel it very easy to stay away from foods not on the list. I can feel more in control limiting myself to only a certain set of foods. This just may be the thing I have been looking for.

Nice to see you back, Paul.

I think you've come up with a really smart plan of action.

Making a program manageable is certainly one of the keys to any successful diet, IMO.

Keep up the good work!

Paul,
I'm so glad to see you back to blogging. You were missed.
Your new plan looks great. I think it's great that you are taking all the guess work out of it and taking control.
Hang in there.

Hi Paul,

That's brilliant! Well done! I, too, find it a lot easier to stay on plan if it's about following certain foods rather than portion sizing (or whatever other method people use).

Great work!

Great work Paul. I think the key is finding what works for you and not worrying about it or comparing yourself to others. The other key is to be willing to change if it's not working for you. It took me a long time to become willing to do certain things (like tracking my food, decreasing quantities, etc).

What is working for me now would not have worked for me a year ago or 18 months ago. And, what I do certainly wouldn't work for others.

The important thing is that you find what works for you and it certainly seems like you are on the right track!

Cheers-

Glad you're back, Paul. I, too, think this could work better for you. I could never restrict portions. Restricting what you eat instead of how much works better for me. And look at how much variety you still have, even eating very low carb. And it's all real food!

Love the list. I think I'll come up with one like that. Thanks for the idea. I've counted enough for one life time.

Hope you're doing well!

Low-carb diets slow prostate tumours

Eating fewer carbohydrates, like breads, chips and cakes, may slow tumour growth in patients suffering from prostate cancer, finds a new study on mice. The thinking is that consuming fewers carbs lowers the levels of insulin in the bloodstream, which feeds growing cancer cells. The findings are published in the Nov. 13 online edition of the journal Prostate.

Live Long And Prosper On A Low Carb Diet

Image
Low-carbohydrate diets may eventually prove themselves to have life-extending properties. In animal research, the only consistent intervention that produces increases in life span is calorie-restriction. Whether the same applies to humans has not yet been established, but we do know that cutting calorie intake often produces marked improvements in important health parameters, such as blood glucose control. Unfortunately, telling people to voluntarily limit their calorie intake on a long-term basis tends to be a very poorly-received piece of advice. Low carbohydrate diets, however, may render such unpopular admonitions redundant. Dietary intervention studies have revealed a rather unique phenomenon; subjects following low carbohydrate diets, despite being told to limit only carbohydrate intake and to eat unrestricted amounts of protein and fat, often inadvertently reduce their total calorie intake to levels similar to those seen in subjects who have been explicitly instructed to lower t...
