Just FYI,
Nana lost more weight on the low carb, mostly like Atkins diet than any other ever. Pounds fell off so fast I was having to buy new size clothes every dew weeks.

After very little time I did not want much food at all.

I did mild exercise 4 nights a week, similar to pilates, nothing strenuous maybe 10 to 15 min. I say pilates, but I didn't know it at the time. Originally all I did was I made every place on my body that I wanted to reduce hurt, with slow stretching movements.The best benefit from that was doing the exercises very very slowly.

I might try it again but with my back is too bad now and I cant do exercise so that is a problem.

I lost about 85 lbs walking 5k a day. I just put on a podcast and strap the dogs (shih tzu's) with me and GO! I absolutely love it. Started off 18 mos ago with walks around the block and then it just turned into a 5-6k because I want to finish what I'm listening to.
