Just wondering if anyone has any experience of the Carbohydrate Addicts Diet?
I heard a bit about it years ago, and when I stopped Atkins, I used its "You can eat carbs but only for an hour a day" rule to keep my weight off for a good few years.
Out of interest, I boought a copy of the book last week in the hope that by fella who is addicted to chips would give the whole diet a try.
Unfortunately he has no inclination to lose weight, so I have failed on that score, but reading it, it sounds quite good.
I am too much of an Atkins girl to go full tilt at the CAD, but on a couple of occasions when I have "needed" to eat carbs (family meals out etc) I have found that as long as I stop the carbs within an hour, and then go straight back to Atkins, I stay in ketosis and don't put weight on.
Just interested to hear other's thoughts/experiences.
