Hey! Have you tried IF (intermittent fasting), Keto or Low Carb diet? If so, how are you feeling or any experiences with it?

I am doing the Fast800 diet. I have lost 18lbs. When I began I had been constantly flaring for 9 months, in particular I had pretty much lost the use of my left wrist. I now feel better than I have for a very long time. I have been fasting for 16 hours every day and eating within an 8 hr window.
Who knows if it will keep the inflammation at bay long term. I just hope.

I've been doing Keto for 4 months and I am feeling incredible. My CRP is now <29! I won't go back to eating sugar, wheat, soy or corn for any reason.

Intermittent fasting has been easy, but the Keto was difficult because I have young children (6 and 9). I dont want to make 2 meals.... but they dont like many of the recipes. Otherwise, I did pretty good on Keto. I lost 10 lbs in 8 days and felt good.

Yay for you!! I followed the wheat belly diet. It’s an amazing program written by a cardiologist. I lost 28 lbs, felt amazing. I hope to lose 5 more lbs.

I've been on Intermittent Fasting since last November (about 6 mo). It was difficuLt at first but I think I got it down pat fasting 12 -14 hrs every day (maybe cheating once or twice a week but not by much)I do feel better and will keep at it until I loose weight.
