Hi there. Yesterday I saw a video about a man who was diagnosed with cancer and had only three months to live and he apparently took on a low-carb diet and survived! I thought it was amazing. If it cured his cancer, it would probably help with weight loss. Now, my mother and I were thinking of doing the diet. My mother is about twice my weight, I'm 5'5 and 120, she is 5'5 and around 220. I don't want to lose too much weight, I think 2-3 pounds could help a lot so I don't need to do the diet too long. Has anyone here ever tried it? What kind of foods are you allowed to eat. How much weight did you lose doing it? I hope I'm not asking too many questions! I'd like to know your experiences and whatnot.
