I’m currently doing cardio 3 times a week coupled with power strength training twice a week. I used to eat good carbs (like multi grain bread, wheat and granola cereal, etc) and have lost 15kg in the past 6 months with about 10% of body fat down. Recently one health instructor I met told me that going on low carb is even better and I’ll lose weight even faster. I have since then (for about a week now) been on a low carb and it feels weird to be on a low carb, high fat & protein diet since I’ve been on a low fat diet for some time. I’ve also been researching and it seems low carb diets are unhealthy. Is this true? Pls advise. Thanks.

I would like to go on a cleanse and start a healthy regimen for the new year. What are the best foods/combinations to do a detox and then a weight loss regimen? Are these cleansers like Puristat a bunch of hog wash or are they any good? I know to keep a low carb, low sugar, low fat diet, but are there any super food secrets I should know? Or juicing recipes that are great? Thanks so much!

What would be a good low fat diet for a 18-year old martial artist who has the following qualities……

236 pounds
6 foot 4 inches
Marital Artist
Athletic build (has gut though, but wants to get rid of it)

Looking for a low fat diet! Any suggestions?

I am going to do the induction phase of the atkins diet (2 weeks) to kick start my weight loss – however, can anyone tell me what will happen when I return to a healthy, low fat diet afterwards? I don’t want to put any weight loss back on again.

I KNOW the best way is to exercise and eat a healthy diet from the outset, but the above is an option I am considering, I’d appreciate it if anyone who has done similar can tell me of their experiences.

Thanks!
