One of our employees decided to cut out fast food completely. Total weight loss in over 6 months of doing this? 0 pounds.
Why? Because his at-home diet was still full of sugar and carbs (and he admitted as much..."I'll never give up bread!")
Meanwhile, I did a low-carb "lazy Keto" diet where all I did was keep carbs under 20g net per day. I continued to eat fast food at least a couple times a week (I ate a lot of burgers with no buns.)
Total weight loss? 25 pounds over 8 months, and have kept it off. I started the diet December 1 of last year, so it's now been almost a year.
It really is the carbs and sugar that do you in, no matter how organic or home-cooked/homemade those carbs may be.
