Ruth, like you I appear to be insulin resistant after making sure that I wasn't eating hidden carbs etc... I am going to have my thyroid checked and if that's okay, will do either the fat fast or almased. You mentioned that both almased and the fat fast worked about equally well for you in terms of jump starting your metabolism. My questions are: Did you loose the same amount of weight with both? Have you been able to keep the weight off with both? Did you have the same amount of energy with both? Thank you in advance. Trying not to get discouraged! Val |
