Tonight I asked the DH if he feels any differently since I've changed what I(we) eat. He's not totally Paleo, but by proxy he eats that way frequently. I've noticed that he's been happier in general with more energy, he says he feels better and he's lost 15#.
My Whole30 is officially DONE!!I am down 14 pounds.I had cheesecake today. IT. WAS. AWESOME. It was also super sweet. Like almost too sweet. The old me would have had another piece.
“Everybody thought Atkins was wonderful and they’ve got all these scientific tests, but ... The carbs are the fire that burn everything completely.”"Sooner or later, it violates the principles that God set down.”
Now this: High-carb diets may be implicated in Alzheimer's Disease. That looks legit, in fact. The studies mentioned have appeared in mainstream, peer-reviewed science journals. Looks like keto will be a regular part of my life henceforth.

The report by the SBU recommends that eliminating carb-rich food such as bread and potatoes will speed up weight loss quicker than a conventional low-fat diet. However, in the long-term there is little difference between how effective various diet plans are says the report.
The SBU is an independent national authority tasked by the government with assessing health care interventions and providing advice on which sort of treatments are most effective. The authority's findings are also meant to be impartial and scientifically reliable and serve as a basis for decision-making by policymakers, healthcare providers, and patients.
