Braselton, GA<\/h6>\n

Before I started following a low-carb diet, my scale had reached 260 pounds, and I\u2019d tried nearly every possible option to lose weight \u2013Jenny Craig, Weight Watchers, extreme calorie restriction with over-exercising. None of it worked for me. All of these low-calorie plans were all higher in carbohydrates, because carbs are lower in calories compared to fat. I couldn\u2019t stick to any of the low-calorie plans for very long and each time I came off a calorie-restricted diet, I got fatter and fatter.<\/p>\n

I discovered low carb in January of 2018 and read several books to learn as much as I could \u2013books by Dr. Jason Fung, Dr. Ken Berry and Dr. Eric Westman. I have since lost 130 pounds and reversed pre-diabetes and high blood pressure. My anxiety is gone, and my autoimmune conditions are manageable (with medication). I have successfully eliminated medications for high blood pressure, Hashimoto\u2019s and anxiety \u2013all through low-carb living.<\/p>\n
