I should mention that all of my research posts(including this one) will just have a tag on it that says research, to differentiate them from my regular posts.
I've been researching this no carb diet idea I heard about, and I think for the most part they were all good reviews. Essentially when someone stops taking in carbs, the body starts using the stored fat to burn because the carbs are not there to provide energy. Someone with a BMI around 20 could lose up to 7lbs in within the first two weeks of consuming no carbs.
But, this article does talk about long term side effects. Food is a huge part of my life, and carbs are as well. I think if I did try this diet, which I think I want to, I'd do it for 1-2 weeks maximum. If I don't lose much weight, no harm no foul. If I do lose weight, great. I'm really just looking to see what's out there to help me lose weight without taking pills and essentially cheating.
