5 of 13

Yes, low-carbohydrate diets work, IF you can stick to them. As a man, I find it easy to stay on a low-carbohydrate diet composed almost entirely of meat, eggs, and cheese, but many women say they find it difficult to limit their diet to those three low-carb foods, keeping most vegetables, breads, and other high-carb foods to...
