I have been researching this a bit and I like what I have read so far, interesting.  I think this is a DS style diet.  Am I correct? Is it close?  But it seems like it can work for anyone.  Low carb, high fat, moderate protein (looks high protein to me, but they said moderate)

After this post, I have decided that the other problems I had posting had nothing to do with the ipad and were just me.  I think I tried to link this 5 different times before it worked lOL

Thanks for posting, Candy. I switched to a ketogenic-type diet a couple of weeks ago during a 3-month stall that I thought would never break. The scale started moving again within a day of drastically reducing carbs and increasing fat. I'm now down 5 pounds and the scale is still moving by a couple of ounces a day, so I'm obviously relieved. Although my diet should look more like the RNY diet--I had MGB which is like the sleeve with bypass--I'm tolerating the fat really well. According to my Fitbit stats where I've been planning my meals, I'm taking in an average of 1600 calories made up of 140g protein (35%), 110g fat (60%), and 20g carb (5%). I'm definitely eating more calories than I was before and I absolutely feel more in control of eating because my cravings are much more manageable.

For anyone that is interested in reading more, I would recommend Why We Get Fat by Gary Taubes. He also wrote Good Calorie, Bad Calorie which I read a few years ago. And, of course, Dr. Atkins is the most famous of the keto-diet guys, so any of his original work makes good reading. Unfortunately, I couldn't follow the keto way of eating before my surgery because I was so addicted to carbohydrates and overeating. My MGB tool has definitely helped with those two obstacles!

The first one would be OK for a DSer but I'd want some snacks included as I don't go that long without food (maybe some cheese and Greek yogurt as snacks would be good).  The 2nd link seems to be fairly devoid of protein and that wouldn't be a plan for me.

I just briefly read through some ofvthis and what struck me was that this is the way my French husbands family eats. Small portions of high fat, high protein, low processed carbs, etc.   His entire family - we are talking his 4 siblings, his parents, aunts and uncles grand parents, lots of peoplmoans not a single one is obese and only 2 are slightly overweight but hardly IMO. My husband of 20 years still wears his size 29 waist Levi's from his early 20's. Crazy. But it is only now afterRNY RNY and change of diet that I see how much the carb addchanged came into play. He can leave 1 bite of cake on his plate because he's full, I've never left a bite of food on my plate until I was post-op. I guess what I'm trying to say is OH YES I think this diet works. I know it does. Thanks for sharing the link!

for me, I'm not sure I could handle that much fat on the first one and would certainly need more protein than the 2nd.  But the idea of building is interesting.

I don't have a problem with fat and do find that I am much more full and satisfied after eating a higher fat meal.
