Well I agree with the principle that one should follow the advice of those who have demonstrated not only the ability to lose weight but also proven they can as easily maintain that weight loss.
But who really believes that tracking calories, body weight, planning meals, tracking fat and weighing every item on every plate is a sensible way to proceed.

I certainly don't bother with any of that time wasting crap. You have to understand how your body naturally regulates your appetite and energy levels and set about restoring those natural control systems.

Does anyone really think that wild animals living on their natural diets, in their natural environments have to count calories in, fat content or plan their meals?
Neither do we, if we understand the basics of what a low carb paleo style diet is all about.
