I gotta check out your DBA book! I’ve been a programmer for many years and us coders live and breath pizzas and cokes, lol. Well, at least I did. My kid also pushed me to make a change and I’ve lost 100 pounds so far. I still have a long way to go but small and sustainable diet changes are what eventually worked for me. I started focusing on total calorie intake, then after making progress I slowly swapped the bad calories for better ones… then exercise and lifestyle changes as well. It’s working. Again, great job! Take care.

I thought you looked a lot smaller than you had been Patrick. I think I noticed it more with you than with Tom. I can relate to both of you. My biggest problem I think is a love for craft beer. I’ve already reduced the carbs in a big way.

Phillip,

Yes, I understand ketosis. It’s not something I would recommend, as it offers more health risk than benefits for the general population. For some cases, ketosis can be recommended, even necessary, but it is often done under medical supervision and for a short period of time. I’m not a doctor and I wouldn’t want someone reading this blog to think I was recommending a risky approach to weight loss. I’m advocating for a “smart-carb” approach here.

Thanks for reading, and for the comment.

Tom
