Hello
I discovered Dr Ray Peat's research because I read articles on gelatin. I have been taking gelatin for 3 weeks for fatigue, insomnia and hopefully to lose 15 pounds. It is helping for curbing my appetite and fatigue.Is the Dr Ray Peat diet more for health issues and not for weight loss? I have been reading all those horror stories how people gain weight when they are "eating the Peat way". I am freaked out~
I gained 15/20 pounds the last 3 years due to insomnia(get up and eat at 2 AM) , stress, physical therapy ( so I could not work out) and horrible work environments. I found an awesome job last year, love my career again but the weight is not coming off. I started working out 5 days a week again in February.
Is it better to take care of the health issue over using some fad diet that will help me shed the weight but still have health issues? I have had issues with insomnia since 2004 and Rozerem is no longer working for me.
What are some things you advise -to do or not do- to avoid the weight gain on the Dr Peat diet?
Or is it the old fashion- count your calories, portion control and increase exercise?
thanks!
