Hi, Bill!

I'm certainly no expert on this, but do have some experiences to speak from. Personally, I've found that Adam Campbell's TNT diet is a great program -- lots of freedom and choices without having to go hungry. There's a lot of support for that diet on this forum. I would also recommend any of the other low carb diets, as well.

The only drawback I have found when combining this with lifting is:
If you find yourself "cheating" too often and loading up on carbs, then you may have low energy during the first few days after you get serious again about low carbing. This will likely affect your endurance and lifting abilities. (Note to self -- so, stop cheating!)

I agree with TCoy, that you will find you're hungrier. But, on a low carb diet, you should have the freedom to eat a little more and still experience fat loss.

Do well!
