Some people call it a paleo diet.
Basically you eat lean meat and green leafies with extremely minimal carbs during the day. This is not atkins. You dont eat fatty foods. By limiting carbs to 25 grams in the morning and 25 grams of carbs at lunch you force your body into ketosis where your liver converts fats for energy. The carbs must be low glycemic index.

Were you doing resistance training while on this diet? I am fighting to lose the last 10-15lbs of fat on the gut and waist, but I worry that gym performance might suffer without the carb energy
