If you are a serious overeater, the more of ANYTHING you eat, the more
you want....carbs, protein, fat. It never made any difference to me
when I used to overeat. I know there are lots of opinions about what
keeps you satisfied longer...protein, fat or carbs? The answer to that
one was easy for me: nothing kept me satisfied. I always wanted to eat
more, and still do....I just don't eat once I reach my quota of
calories.

I lost 29 pounds so far in about two and a half months. I am following
Dr. Perricone's recommendations on foods and nutritional supplements.
I haven't had much craving to overeat. I have eaten very little high
carb food since the end of last December. I have had a few bowls of
Ramen noodles, a few bowls of cereal, and a few cups of coffee. They
caused me to gain back a few pounds which then took a few days to get
rid of again. Foods made with flour or sugar are deadly to me. They
make me gain weight rapidly. I'm going to stay off of them for good,
for the rest of my life. They do a lot of damage to your body in many
ways, not just make you fat. I think I haven't had any high carb food
in over a week now. I quit eating any kind of junk food or unhealthy
food. I quit eating anything made of flour, corn, sugar, or rice. I
just eat vegetables, fruit, meat, yogurt, kefir, and nuts. I have
found that I don't really lose much weight if any unless I exercise.
