You're probably more right than I wish it. I did an Atkins diet about two years ago and went from 211 down to 169 in about 5 months. I don't know what happened to the bf%, but I'm sure I lost quite a bit of muscle mass during that time.

I am trying to reduce non-fibrous carbs: no more rice and oats only once at the beginning of the day.

I may try reducing carbs even further by eliminating the oats, but then I am losing quite a bit of calories in the morning feeding. Veggies, for all their nutritional value, don't carry many calories with them.

At present, I think I'm losing bf. My weight hasn't changed since I got down to 188, but my pants are starting to require a belt even for short walks around the house, even though they aren't quite falling down altogether, yet.

I still plug your product, as well as NROL and I'm starting to catch some flak recommending people spend money over internet information.

If you're trying to lose body fat, why would you care about getting those calories? Maybe some fruit, instead.

I can do that, but I didn't want to slow down the metabolism due to an anemic diet.

I hear you. I love oatmeal. More fat or protein would be a better way to get those "lost" calories.
