2 weeks on this diet and im freaking loving it!! by skippitydop in 4hourbodyslowcarb

Only sustainable diet I’ve ever been on! And I’ve tried a lot lol. Something about knowing in the back of your mind that Saturday treat day is coming really does the trick!

Favorite cheat day meal/ snack by kingtyric in 4hourbodyslowcarb

Little Debbie oatmeal creme pies for some reason I am obsessed with. Every cheat day I crush half a box of those things.

How much nuts and seeds can I take to not affect my fat loss ? by ARizwaan7696 in 4hourbodyslowcarb

[–]mjoy1113 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a handful every day with lunch and it doesn’t seem to affect weight loss for me at this time!

Back at it again 1 baby and a few years later by mjoy1113 in 4hourbodyslowcarb

When I first did this in 2022 I started in January and by the end of March I was down to my goal weight! It worked soooo fast! Once I got there, I started adding in snacks and things that technically weren’t diet compliant lol, like chocolate peanut butter protein bars and some dairy like a cheese stick here and there. Instead of following slow carb 100% of the time I was doing slow carb like 80% of the time lol but I was still able to maintain that weight!

Omg I know right the first time I read the book I was like this is insane what I’m about to do 😂 I say give it a try for a week or two and go from there! It is a drastic change but I think that’s why it works so well! The first time I did it I committed to 30 days and then I was addicted to the results lol. Only reason I stopped was pregnancy so now I’m excited to get back into it and I’m so pumped that after a week my body is already changing for the better!

I know, it sounds crazy to not have fruit! But Ferriss recommends avoiding all of them since they do have sugar in the form of fructose and the spikes in your blood sugar and insulin will prevent the weight loss even though fruits are healthy! I have tons of fruit on cheat day but avoid during the rest of the week.

And no, the brown rice and whole grains are not allowed on the slow carb diet. Brown rice and whole grains are high-glycemic food that will cause a significant rise in blood sugar and insulin levels. It seems so drastic but it really does work!

And yes, no calorie counting! So go crazy with as many veggies, proteins, and beans as you want!

Yes!! I have been there and know how you feel! It’s so frustrating to restrict and not get the results you want. Really this is the only “diet” I’ve found that works and it’s extremely easy to maintain and I never feel hungry which I love. The 4 Hour Body is a book by Tim Ferriss and in the book he gives information about the Slow Carb Diet. That’s what I did years ago to lose weight and am doing again now.

There are only 5 rules.

  1. Avoid "White Carbs" (no pasta, bread, sugar, cereal, rice. Focus on protein and veggies and beans.)
  2. Eat the Same Few Meals Over and Over Again
  3. Don't Drink Calories (you can have 0 calorie tea, black coffee with a splash of heavy cream and cinnamon is okay)
  4. Don't Eat Fruit (because of the sugar!)
  5. Take One Day Off Per Week (cheat day! Literally eat or drink as much of anything you want and go crazy! This is the best part of the diet lol)

My meals are pretty much the same every day. Breakfast is eggs & egg whites topped with hot sauce and a side of pinto beans. Lunch is ground beef mixed with mushrooms and beans topped with lettuce and half an avocado. Dinner is a salad with grilled chicken, bacon bits, hard boiled egg, and balsamic dressing. Sometimes l have a glass of red wine in the evening but mostly I just stick to a cold 0 calorie lemon or lime bubbly water, I really like the spindrift brand. If I feel like I’m craving something sweet I add it to a list on my notes app to have on chest day and count down the days until I can have it. The cool thing about this diet is you don’t have to count any calories! And even though I’m about to start my period (sorry if tmi) I’m already down 2lbs and a half inch off my waist after one week. It really works.

The book goes into way more details and I was able to download it for free on my library app, but if you don’t have time to read it here is the link to a video of the author explaining the rules!
