Raison Diet Facet 1: Food
This is the most important part of the diet because you will eat several times a day. This is not a diet that asks you to starve or drink shakes instead of meals. It’s definitely a diet that didn’t forget food-something we all must have to live.

What can I eat?
Anything you want as often as you like! Well that would be nice but it wouldn’t really work would it? After all, most people do exactly that and gain weight, get sick become diabetic, and hate how they look in the process. So, back to reality: you can eat anything that is carbohydrate or “carb” free. That means zero carbs. Before you roll your eyes, there is a grace policy of 20 carbs per day to help you with impossible situations or the occasional breading on your chicken strips.

What kinds of food are low in carbohydrates?
Meat, Fish, Chicken, Pork, Cheese, Eggs, Bacon, Dill pickles, Pork Rinds, Hot Dogs, Several brands of Diet Bars (typically they are 4 or less net carbs).

What can you drink?
Water, Diet Soda or Tea when sweetened with Splenda, Flavored Water and some powdered drinks like Crystal Light. Be cautious of aspartame sweeteners as they are a bit evil in their effects on the body. Splenda is a far more natural product and many vendors are preferring it over the NutraSweet.

How long do I eat this way?
This diet shifts once you get to your target weight. You want to be strict with yourself and stay carb free, or as close as possible to zero carbs until that time. If you must have a salad once in a while, that’s fine, you have your 20 carb grace per day to allow that.
When you arrive at your target weight, you can begin adding carbs back in to your diet. You just need to keep track of how many you have on a given day, so you can measure their effects on your weight. If your weight goes up the day after 4 slices of pizza-then this is a big clue you should have stopped at 2. Use common sense and you’ll find the right balance for your body and size.
