[quote=Anonymous]I eat an atkins style diet. For me, being in ketosis is great. The transition into it can make me feel yucky, but its just for a day or 2. Then I'm eating less food effortlessly and not feeling hungry. High fat foods are so satiating and delicious. And once in ketosis, I have no (or very few) sweet cravings. I have lost some weight (but I was not really overweight before) and also find improvements in my moods and I have less joint stiffness. I was seeing a chiropractor since I couldn't turn my head very far - but now my mobility is back, no chiro needed. Maybe some type of carb foods I was eating were causing an inflammatory response in my joints? Grains perhaps? Just speculation. If I was starting over, I might go with a more paleo/primal approach of cutting out grains and legumes, but keeping some starchy foods, like sweet potatoes, in my diet. Just to experiment with that as a first step. [/quote]
