THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU! This post is over the top useful.
I’ve not commented before. I really hate getting on my computer and get off as quick as I can, even though I’ve had a PC since the 1980s. Low Carbing Amoung Friends has revitalized my life style since I found it a year ago. Because of many food allergies (some that I only find out about the first time a consume very much of it), Iv’e had to go slow trying new recipes. Also I have digestive problems so cannot use a lot of spices. I,ve been hypoglycemic all my life which is now, at age 70, turning into pre-diabetic proplems, so that limits what I can eat as well. You are are one of my favorites on this site.

Sure thing, Loralea! Regarding dairy … I honestly don’t really think we were designed for dairy after babyhood. I personally function better without it and lose more quickly. It contains growth hormones and casein, lactose, etc. Different people have different reactions to these things. I don’t know what your reaction is. My suggestion would be … try and eliminate all dairy for 30 days. If you feel better and/or lose weight … then … you know that dairy holds you back. However, if you notice no meaningful difference, then … enjoy dairy! I personally KNOW that it holds me back, but … I also know that it’s delicious … so I make some rationalizations and concessions and … enjoy dairy … . Someday, maybe I’ll get rid of it, entirely … but … not yet. Cream and cheese is YUMMY! 😀

Thank you, DJ. I have been reading a lot of good information, you are the only one who has responded to my questions. I’m new, so this is going to be a trial and error month. I’m starting out 20/50 carbs per day and I will see how this will work. You mentioned that you cut the dairy out, does this mean my love for my cheese must go? I do 2oz a day on an average. Thank you for your help.

I hate to bundle this all up like this, but ? thank you so much for all the kind words, Sharon, Maura, Jamie and Bonnie! This post took some work, but it appears that many many of you have found it to be useful ? making ME feel like it was a great use of my time. Thank you so much for letting me know!

Karen, true! I agree ? that stuff is no bueno!

Loralea ? it really varies for different people. What works for me, may not work for you. You should read a bit and work to find your own personal sweet spot. For me, personally ? about 30 to 35 net carbs per day, never more than about 10 net carbs per hour. I stick to largely whole foods, no grains, very few legumes and ? while I try to limit my dairy ? it rarely works. I do love it, so! I?m also a 40 year old male who exercises about 4 to 5 times a week. If you?re older or younger, this will impact you. If you?re more or less stressed ? this will impact you. If you?re more or less sensitive to say ? nightshades ? you?ll need more or less. There are a wide number of factors at play ? from energy to health, medical conditions, genetics, age, gender, etc. In any event, I hope something here helps. Please let me know if you have any further questions!
