Title: I lost 190 lbs because of this book
Review: Like the title says, I lost 190 lbs total following the low-carb diet recommended in this book. I gained a good general knowledge of types of carbohydrates and how blood glucose and insulin levels affect weight gain/loss and general health. I can't believe I actually did it, when no low-fat diet I'd ever tried in my (then) 35 years had worked in the slightest. Plus, I felt great! No fatigue, no sense of unsatisfied hunger, etc. I feel this book is a little less extreme than Atkins.A bought this book a few years ago but gave it away to a friend. When I went off track a bit about 4 years after starting low carb, I bought another copy to renew my knowledge and encourage myself. Lost the weight again. Now I'm not giving this copy away this time!The only con is that I think it could use a better list of foods rated by glycemic index.
