Low Carbohydrates works great if you stick to it. Weather it’s Keto, Atkins, Mediterranean, etc..., they are all slightly different versions of low carb. The thing is, it can’t be just a diet to work. It needs to be a lifestyle change. If it’s just a diet, you will gain the weight right back as soon as you go back to old eating habits. Eat lots of fresh fruits, veggies, whole grains, nuts, and lean proteins. Avoid root vegetables, and most importantly run away from anything with sugar and/or white flour. In addition to losing weight, you will have more energy and see a significant drop in both blood pressure and cholesterol. Good Luck.
