I am really glad it worked for you, and I know it works for lots of people, I am just not suited to it and it did not work for me. Hi Lou
When I finally got the portion sizes for veg I could see that I was actually eating less veg than I should have been on most days. I am really glad it worked for you, and I know it works for lots of people, I am just not suited to it and it did not work for me.

If you follow the instructions (which whilst I agree could be clearer do give all the info you need) you soon start losing inches. Please don't let this blog put you off if you are thinking of starting - this really is the best diet i have ever been on Hi Lisa

The Go Lower forum is packed with people who are doing well on it, maybe I am just not suited to it. I am really happy to be back to eating my normal high veg diet again!

Armed with the knowledge I had at the start I should be able to get into ketosis quickly now.

Because I have not yet gone into ketosis, which is the basis of the Go Lower diet we thought that I might be eating too much veg. Boo and hiss, I crave fresh fruit and veg! Normally I eat the sort of diet you suggest, but with added cake and biccies, it is very alien to me not eating veg, as is eating large doses of protein at every meal but I'm up for trying it out.

They aid in the digestion of food and replenish essential enzymes, vitamins and minerals that are destroyed in the process of cooking and preparation. Fresh fruit and raw green salad are the two foods, when consumed in large quantities, with the best correlation to longevity in humans. These foods eaten in UNLIMITED quantities are also the key to weight loss and to better health. Shoot for 70 – 80% of your food intake to be raw foods. Also eat whole foods. The 20 – 30% of your diet that is not raw foods should consist of whole foods, which are largely unprocessed and chemical free. These would include, whole grains (wheat, corn, rice, whole grain pasta, etc.), baked potatoes, and steamed vegetables (fresh or frozen, not canned). Also drink 64 oz of Filtered Water a day. Water is necessary for chemical reactions in the body to take place. Water is used for transport, detoxification and to metabolize. Water transports nutrients in and waste out. If you check Weight Watchers out, they even say that you can eat unlimited raw veggies and receive no points for them. Good Luck! Remember to eat raw foods at every meal.
