[quote=Anonymous]I did a "DIY" prolon, which is fairly simple. Its not just a weight loss diet, it has a lot of scientific research backing up its claims to really improve longevity and health--lower insulin, lower visceral fat, increase muscle growth on refeeding, positive for your gut microbiota.

Most DIY versions suggest about 45% carbs, 45% fat and 10% protein, at about 4.5 calories/pound. Must be vegan and requires you to weigh and measure everything if you dont get the box. The most important thing is low protein---just for the diet--and then to eat well on refeeding.

I basically had avocado, olive oil and a few nuts for fat, veggie soups (amys organic) and vegetables for carbs, and a few gluten free seed crackers.  One typical day was 537 calories, with 55 grams of carbs, 33 grams of fat and 11 grams of protein which I got from avocado with lemon juice and spinach (lunch) and butternut squash soup and seed crackers (dinner) plus 2 macadamia nuts. Days 2 and 3 were hard, but I felt good on 4 and 5 and maintained a 2 lb weight loss. I'm 5'2" and was 124 when I started, now around 122 (several months later).
