When
I decided to lose weight I of course decided
to do as much planning as possible. It seems
the older I get the harder it is to do anything
without completely planning it out. Anyways,
I had already been on the all protein diets
and knew that they worked. The only problem
was I could never stick to them for very long.
So
I decided to research the net a little more
and see if I could find some other program
that I had not yet heard about. I noticed
something kind of strange, the more I looked
around at different weight loss articles.
The
two types of people that seemed to be claiming
their way of eating was the best, were either
vegans or the no carbohydrate eaters. This
made sense to me. I mean, I know people who
have lost lots of weight eating no carbohydrates.
And if you know anyone who is a vegan, you
know that they are generally very slim.
So
I researched some more and came across some
articles on food combining. These people claimed
that you can eat whatever you want as long
as you combine it properly. You can eat pasta
as long as you only eat it with vegetables.
Or, you can eat meat as long as you only eat
it with vegetables.
This
made sense because either way you are going
to be eating a lot of vegetables, which nobody
would argue, is a good thing. So I started
my modified protein vegan style diet.
I
went almost a month eating meat and veggies,
when my weight loss seemed to plateau. So
after that I decided to try a pasta diet,
properly combined, for a while. And guess
what, I lost some more weight the week I ate
the carbohydrates.
A
little over a month and I had lost 30 pounds
and have kept it off for nine months now.
So my question is this.
Do
you think the vegans have the answer? Maybe,
Do
you think the protein lovers have the answer?
Maybe,
Do
you think the food combining theory carries
some weight?
I
would say so. I would say it carries about
30 pounds of weight.
