I'm going to start the sugar diet (sugar fasting) this Wednesday for 3-4 days at a clip and see how it goes. It's important to skip all starches as well as proteins and fats if you are going for a more intense weight loss upfront. So I will be eating (organic) sugar, fruit juices, all fruits, including bananas, non- starchy vegetables with soy sauce and any other sauces without fat. Once you lose enough weight and see how your body reacts you can add in rice and pastas as tolerated. Even during intense sugar fasting it is good to eat lean protein twice a week, but it will slow down weight loss. ( or so I have heard)
I am a type ll diabetic so I will be monitoring closely. If I can lose the weight I want I know I can kick myself out of the diabetic blood sugar range completely. I have about 30 lbs to lose
Honestly carnivore is super based to lose weight. I couldn't keep up with the diet because I was losing more weight than I can afford to. Have started eating fruits again to gain more weight but if you seriously wanna lose weight just do carnivore. Plus it gives you great mental clarity!

Working on getting to OMAD, I typically don't eat meal 1 till very late am/early pm, not hard to do that so will eventually get to OMAD

Understand where you're coming from but it does matter what you eat, if your OMAD was processed junk/heavy carb/refined sugar, that would defeat the purpose from a health standpoint...no such thing as an essential carb whereas there is such a thing as essential fats, just something to keep in mind.

Agreed! I'm Italian, and we really are food snobs. I cook everything I eat, which includes pasta, bread, and natural sugars. I have found over time that restricting entire food groups creates stress, anxiety, obsession, and lots of work. I love to cook. It relaxes me. The elimination of stress and obsession about food lends itself to overall health, methinks. 

Regarding Italian food snobs, I have an 88 year old bachelor uncle who still cooks himself supper every single night! LOL!!

Nice!
I too am Italian and raised on that cuisine, as I'm in my 60's now, I rarely eat that wonderful tasting food anymore though the temptations too set in from time to time

Nobody else has said it, so I will… the lady in the video does not look very skinny… I thought the whole point of this diet was to lose fat and be lean and slim. Is it just her immodest outfit?
There are many guys on YouTube on the Sugar fast that are  super ripped with below 10% body fat but their language is atrocious so I won’t post them here . Woman  as usual have a harder time with weight loss because of  hormones , fat distribution , metabolism menopause , etc . If I get half the results stated I will consider it a success
