My wife and I are on a lower carb diet. We continue to easily lose weight, and our blood and other tests look better than ever.

We eat as much as we want of formerly “bad” foods. We do try to have a medium avocado a day. We use erythritol, xylitol, and other sweeteners to help.

Due to eating so much and to the general effect of what low carb does, we wind up skipping meals because we a still feel full.

We do not try to reduce any calories, and that is exceptionally “freeing.”

We started to lose a little weight before requalifying for life insurance. After two months, we both shot up to “preferred plus” rates and our total cholesterol to HDL was wonderfully good. Every marker said we were healthier than we could have hoped. My numbers looked as good as when I was working out every day, twenty years ago—and I don’t work out at all, now. I sit at a desk and barely move, but it doesn’t look that way to my life insurance company or to my doctor.

Don’t tell him what I’m doing!
