21 Life Lessons from Liv’in La Vida Low Carb by Jimmy Moore
ByJimmy Moore is a writer, blogger and great guy. He hails from SC and has just written his second book. I wanted you to know about it because it will be a great reference for you if you are a health writer, a blogger, a person who wants to loose weight, or you want more information about a low carbohydrate lifestyle. There are lessons here for everyone. Below is a cover shot of the book by Jimmy.
What is this book about? Well if we examine the table of contents, we can discover much about the book. Below are two pages from the book that contain the table of contents.
I love these chapters: #2 about the validity of cholesterol testing. The old standard test is great if all is really normal, but if your Doctor suggests you take a drug to lower your cholesterol, read this chapter and talk to your Doctor about a more detailed and comprehensive test.
Chapter 3 about the perils of high sugar, especially high fructose in your food is a gem. You know that this is called natural sweetener by the corn council. I was a farm kid, but we aren’t defending small family farms here. This is about something that is as toxic to your liver as Hepatitis. Actually, the fatty liver disease you can get from ingesting this stuff causes a form of hepatitis. Read up and be informed.
Here is a quote from Jimmy from pages 3 and 4:
If you are reading this and thinking you’d like to go ahead and get started on your own low-carb
lifestyle, then let me encourage you to do the following:
1. Read a solid low-carb book like Dr. Atkins New Diet Revolution, Protein Power by Drs. Mike
& Mary Dan Eades, or for a side-by-side comparison of the most popular low-carb diets get Dr.
Jonny Bowden’s newly-updated 2010 release Living Low-Carb.
2. Have your doctor conduct a NMR LipoProfile (NMRLipoprofile.com) blood test to measure
your LDL particle size, HDL cholesterol, and triglycerides at baseline so you can see how much
improvement low-carb will make on your health.
3. Commit to following your chosen low-carb plan exactly as prescribed for at least three
months while continually educating yourself more and more about the low-carb lifestyle (read
Gary Taubes’ Good Calories, Bad Calories for an excellent history of the science behind low-
carb).
4. Get active support not just from your friends and family, but by getting involved with others
who have been successful eating this way online through low-carb forums like mine
(LivinLowCarbDiscussion.com).
5. Most importantly, NEVER, NEVER, EVER GIVE UP! You’ll likely face struggles, temptations,
cravings, and even some pain early on when you do this. But let me tell you, the payoff in the
end is totally worth it if you can just stick it out until you reach your goal. By the time you get
there, you’ll want to keep on low-carbing for the rest of your life.
The best place to purchase this is through Amazon. I used to be an associate but no longer am, and if you purchase the book, Jimmy receives all the profit from it. He wrote it and he deserves it. He did give me a PDF copy of the book to review and it is 300 pages so it took me a few days. I hope you enjoy this as much as I did. Consider giving a copy to friends and family who are trying to lose weight and are serious about keeping it off.
