after testing diets for years, I finally found my Graal But it's not only Cambridge, it's wonderful books about copping on a diet and great exercice. I am a all or nothing person and finally had to admit that I am that on a diet too but I am french so a real food lover too and having two bites a day of wonderful meals I keep making for my family is enough for me right now
Congrats on your Fat % it is so important !

Its weird how one diet works for one person and not for another isnt it, but then again the world would be a boring place if we were all the same

yes definitely, all my best friends lose weight on carbs (organic and whole) and I'm just starving on carbs. I am hunter gatherer type according to my genes I guess, I need my proteins. It just took me 40 years to finally discover it as I was more driven to the vege type. Now I have to find a vege solution for increasing my protein amount. But some fancy author wrote about how some of us have changed their genes to adapt to the society of agriculture and therefore are more adapted to carbs than others.
