The SAD (Standard American Diet) is loaded with Carbohydrates, and limiting them is smart. The truly healthiest diet is Vegetarian, with a lot of History behind it to back that claim.
The Keto diet is similar to the Atkins diet, and is well proven to be a fast weight loss diet. A young Lady I used to work with put herself in the Hospital with the Atkins diet, she went into ketoacidosis.

I do NOT know that the diet you are on will do this, but please be careful! I would love to steal the pink chair (Throne?) from you, ROFLOL; But I would NOT want to win it this way! SO Stay healthy! Okay?
But there is a century of empirical data to support the weight loss, and health advantages of being a vegetarian. If I had the discipline, I would do it myself; But I will just have to keep nibbling around the edges I guess.

preaching to the choir.
the Atkins diet had serious issues which I've already written about in my posts.
Hippocrates:
He was a pretty smart old boy! I had a salad from my weed patch tonight. Lambs quarters for lettuce, Purslane for flavor, Dandelions for bite, and some cherry tomatoes (I know those are Not weeds, but they are growing back there). I made some vinegar (with Mother) and oil dressing, and I ate well (it was better than the pizza, ROFLOL)
:)haha! better for you than pizza by far but I don't know about better tating! if that's where you're at then you're there! but I don't know what Purslane is, some kind of weed?
Yes most people think Purslane is a weed, It is tangy, and I think refreshing. You should try some, you might like it.
