My sis fwd your blog to me on Aug. 5th. On Aug. 6th I started my own health journey.
I am on week 7, I am down 19 lbs! Like you said, this may not be the best way for everyone but it has clicked for me.
My husband, sister, Mom and Dad have also joined with me. My husband lost 7 lbs, my sister is down 12 lbs, my Mom is down 16.5 lbs and my Dad has lost 17 lbs.
Thank you so much for sharing your journey!

So glad I found this blog (via Eric’s twitter)

I have a strange request. I live in Provo and if you are stilling living or working in the valley, could I buy you lunch and pick your brain a little about the slow carb thing? You are a serious inspiration and I am so happy for your success.

I would be so grateful if you’d be up for that. If not, I’ll just keep reading and learning from your blog.

Thanks Jeff!

To be honest, I don’t worry about portion size, even on the beans. I kind of take him at his word when he says portion size doesn’t matter much. So I don’t know if I can answer your question completely accurately, but I’ll do my best. When I eat beans, I probably usually eat about a cup. Sometimes less, probably not more very often. My most common bean meal is a mix of black, pinto, and refried beans.

That said, I don’t have beans at every meal like I am supposed to. I try to have them for lunch and dinner, probably successful about 80% of the time for those meals. I don’t even try at breakfast — I have a protein shake, because I don’t like breakfast.

Congrats and good work on the weight loss! I have been reading about this diet and have a couple questions for you. I know Ferris doesn’t worry about quantities and portions but I am curious about your bean portions. Half cup of beans per meal? Whole cup? How many meals do you eat on an average day? Seems like carb portions might make a difference in results.
