<p>I spent 8 years (2000-2008) trying to lose a middle age gut, following all the 'right advice': low fat, lots of jogging, even a marathon in 2004.</p> <p>I gave up for 6 months, got heavier, ran more, got heavier.....April 2008 I started a 25 year old, medically researched, commercial ketogenic low fat VLCD, 610-800 kcal/day. I lost 50 pounds in 4 months, wasn't hungry after the 3rd day. (no exercise for 4 months)</p> <p>Then back to low fat, calorie counting, jogging. Weight started coming on again. Went online, Started reading....... </p> <p>Taubes, Sisson, Briffa, Eades, Wolf, Leangains, Lean Saloon, PHD, Kresser. Guyenet, Harris, Masterjohn, FTA. LLVLC and many more. (Despite being a lapsed 1974 biology post grad I'd heard nothing of epigenetics. I got very excited about that in feb 2009) I forgot the low fat mantra (took a year not to feel guilty from the CW brainwashing) Did quite a lot of Dolson (low carb) to help break away from bread/cake/pasta shaped food.</p> <p>Lost the belly again, lifted a little bit, ran a little bit, cold showers for 2 year. Settled into paleo+butter/hwc, for 3 years so far. Feel good!</p> <p>Point of all this rambling is that it was the commercial ketogenic VLCD that finally introduced me to the fact that i could quickly, simply and easily influence my body to 'burn fat' by how i ate, and I am very grateful for that.</p> <p>I'm 60. 5ft 8in. I weigh 155lb. (My father and brother, both 5ft 8in, died age 63 and 71. both 240lb+) </p>

<p>Your own body hasn't got the time for wait for research proof. The underlying concept is so simple it is most likely correct. Accept it. Or not. If you wait it's too late. Only one person wins or looses. </p>

<p>Appearance of Xanthelasma under my right eye in October 2011 made me decide to get a lipid test. (Previously I had vowed to never bother to take a test again as I had felt so good eating primal since 2008)</p> <p>TC Sept 2007: 220. TC Nov 2011: 530. (Quite scarily off to the right of O Primitivos all causes graph)</p> <p>I have made some very minor changes to my diet. Next test in Feb.</p>

<p>Try this; ditch that coffee; especially if its french press or expresso.</p> <p>4 years ago, when 50 pounds heavier, my TC was 220. October this year (2 years primal) TC=530! (tested twice due doctor disbelief)</p> <p>Dropped my daily 6-8 large cups expresso/french press. (I knew this addiction was not 'ancestral'! but it helped my daily 16 hr 'IF'). </p> <p>Last week: TC 230.</p>

<p>Lost 50 pounds and since have been low carb/primal 2 years, leanish (about 15%) and at steady weight. Most mornings, when I'm in ketosis (stik check), my fingertips and toes are usually slightly numb but my bum and stomach area feel warm. Blood glucose normal. (4.5 UK) </p>

<p>NHS and FSA are completely CW. So no help there. Met an (overweight) NHS <strong>bariatric</strong> nurse last year.</p> <p>She said going into ketosis (as indicated by ketostiks) was an illness to be avoided at all costs! </p>

sorry..'simple' was perhaps the wrong word to use. 'obvious' probably better. it is to me anyway. I can't beleive it took me 57 years to spot it! The mechanism is still 'ancient', the fuel supply is too new. vegetarianism is simple but its not obvious.

To clear up this ketosis comment; The NHS bariatric nurse came to me as she was overweight and I am a VLC meal replacement consultant. She needed to lose weight but nothing she knew would help her. There was nothing I could do as the ketosis generated by a VLC program was NOT acceptible to her. This was the 'ketosis' she was afraid of! Last I heard she had a gastric band fitted! So much for the NHS bariatric advice!
