Does LCHF work long-term? The answer is usually yes – assuming, of course, you really do eat accordingly the whole time. Should you return to your previous food habits, you’ll also eventually return to your previous weight – just like with any other diet.
One man who’s kept to a very strict low-carbohydrate diet non-stop for four years is Tommy Runesson. Above is his amazing weight graph. It shows a steep decline of around 198 lbs for 1.5 years, and then a smoother stabilization period approaching normal weight. Today, his weight has been stable for around 2.5 years.
An LCHF diet won’t normally make you underweight, as long as you eat your fill. Instead, it helps most people (but not all) lose their excess weight.
Here is Tommy Runesson’s update after four years: 4 years and -200lbs (Google translated from Swedish)
