If you do try it, you'll probably want to ease into the diet. I kind of went cold turkey on carbs but that's not advisable. I work with a guy who is about 350 lbs and he tried it and didn't ease into it. He mentioned feeling faint because of the fluctuations in his blood sugar levels. I wish you well and hope you consider the diet, though there's certainly a lot to consider and you'd probably also want to get blood work before and during and let your doctor know (that'd be a good idea whichever diet you choose). If you're like me, you appreciate numbers and trends, and all of that can be an excellent motivator.

Thanks for the information, I think I will ease into it.

@norrko, don't ease into it, jump in with both feet! I did 12 weeks ago and there's no turning back!
