In the last two months I've lost 20 lbs.  I've gone from 226 to 206, and I'm still losing.  How?  I just stoped eating carbs of any kind.  I eat meats and fats.  Nuts and cheese.  That's all.  No white bread.  No buns.  No tortillas.  No chips.  I eat as much as I want, and I often eat a lot.  I'm very happy to eat a butter soaked steak, or a wad of garlic buttered shrimp.  Or wings, wings, wings.  Just no carbs. For snacks I eat jerky.    I wear a dexcom and I monitor my glucose.  I do spot exercises if it spikes.   I do 2-4 long bike rides per week. Upon occasion (every two weeks or so) I'll have a carby meal like a Culver's burger, a hot dog, or a pizza.  My glucose spikes and stays high for 12-16 hours in an oscillating pattern that gradually damps out and returns to normal.  I don't gain any weight after those meals. A beer will spike my glucose for an hour but it rapidly falls back to normal.  The area under the curve is minimal.  Whisky and wine have no effect on the glucose at all.
