5. I will tell you about a friend that went on the no carb diet. He weighed 340 pounds

when he started the diet. He lost 100 pounds, he was big guy anyway and he looked good at 240.
He goes off the no carb diet and kept losing weight for several weeks. He got worried and went to a
doctor and found he had liver cancer. He died 2 months later at 130 pounds. I tried it myself before he did
and I lost weight quickly but after about a month I hit a plateu and couldn't lose anymore for a couple weeks.
When I stopped the diet I gained all the weight I had lost within days. I have had a weight problem since I was about
10 years old. I joined a gym about 25 years ago a started riding a bike I got my weight down. If I put on a few pounds
I substitute a Slim Fast a few days. That works for me. Maybe the cancer had nothing to do with the no carb diet
but I wouldn't take a chance.
