they are so real as they've filled out my bra and I have to move differently now. I gained weight which I'm not happy with as I've got way to careless with eating and I'm not happy about that as I need to start eating clean and go to war against food!! Ms Violet said I have muffin top which I'm not happy with either. She said I need corset training. Once I do that won't that give me girlish hour glass figure? Also I'll have to eat way smaller meals to won't I?
Hi, BraLover. No, you won't have to eat smaller meals to lose weight.
So long as the carbohydrates are low enough, one can eat as much as one wants--indeed, gorge oneself--and lose weight (if one is overweight) or maintain one's weight (if one is at a healthy weight).
The low-carbohydrate, high-fat diet is the diet which humans evolved on and consumed throughout most of their existence. Obesity and ill health result when humans deviate from their natural diet.
The biochemistry of why carbohydrates make humans obese is well-understood. The reason is because carbohydrates stimulate insulin production, and insulin in turn tells one's body to store calories as fat.
With this natural human diet, the main thing is to keep net carbohydrates to under 20 grams a day if one is attempting to lose weight, i.e., the induction phase; and to eat lots of saturated fats, such as animal fats and coconut oil. One can eat more carbohydrates in the maintenance phase, wherein one is at a healthy weight one wishes to maintain. Net carbohydrates are digestible carbohydrates, so nondigestible carbohydrates such as fiber are not counted.
The low-carbohydrate, high-fat diet is also excellent at curing diabetes, in that unless the diabetes has already done irreversible damage or reached a terminal stage, then typically one can eliminate all symptoms of diabetes and quit all diabetes medications; and even if the diabetes has done permanent damage, one can usually reverse the other symptoms of diabetes. Although if one who had diabetes starts consuming too much carbohydrates again, the diabetes will come back.
For the details on this, I recommend one watch the below video of a lecture by Gary Taubes at the University of California, Berkeley and sponsored by the School of Public Health at UC Berkeley:
