Yeah, forgot this high protein, low carb, low fat diet and just do low carb.
Lift weights, do cardio and eat low carb. I've lost 117 lbs so far, and I'm
very happy. Muscle, stamina, and strength have all increased, while fat has
decreased. Tone is greatly improved.

Doing low fat and low carb will make you miserable. It is likely you won't
be able to stay on such a diet for very long. Be sure to eat lot of high
fiber veggies.

And if you don't like low carb, then do low fat. But LC is better imo
because it usually prevents muscle loss compared to low fat.
