Eat Stop Eat and Carbs

February 27, 2009 By Brad Pilon

A great question from Chris: Brad, I am on the fence about your program. I have been low-carbing it for a while now with some great results. However I am starting to feel a little limited in what I can eat. It would be nice to have the occasional taco or dessert! Are you saying all calories are the same?

Fasting for Weight Loss – Setting the Record Straight
