I've been on Atkins/Keto type diet and McDougall/Furhman type diet and I lost some weight on all diets but the easiest diet to stay on indefinitely for me is Dr Mcdougall's! And I've found that as a diabetic I can have potatoes if I don't put any oil (sour cream or butter) on them and don't eat meat and starches at the same time. Eating meat and non starches or starches without oil or meat only other veggies! Someone wrote a diet book on that principal and it was called Fit for Life! But on his second book Dr Diamond suggests to go more starch and less meat. It has been proven that meat and dairy are carcinagens and may cause cancer. I wondered where all the cancer was coming from! I've heard all my life to eat more fruits and vegetables and to eat your greens to get healthy but I was young and didn't pay attention. I got out luckier than some (no cancer found yet) but have high blood pressure, diabetes and inflammatory arthritis which is causing me to need hip replacement surgery on both hips. Another reason to be on McDougall type diet which is anti inflammatory. I urge everyone to look at videos on YouTube of Drs McDougall, Esselstein, Klapper and many more Drs that want our country to be more healthy and agree to a month or longer to see how you feel at any age with this eating plan!
