Leptin: An important hormone that helps controls hunger and also tells your body when to burn off body fat!

5

Just for the record, Medi Weightloss Clinic does NOT allow you to you bacon on this diet... however,  I can't stand the turkey sausage they suggested and it has twice the calories of one piece of bacon so.......... I'm eating the bacon instead and lost more weight last week than I had in a regular week. I figure this is a marathon, not a sprint,  and enjoying what you eat is a large part of sticking with the low carb lifestyle.

I hate the idea of eating sausage that is formed by grinding up turkey parts and extruding it into sausage... that is odd tasting. No turkey bacon for me.... I want the real stuff, not turkey made to look like bacon.  After all, we're only talking about THIRTY FIVE CALORIES!


When we eat fat, an  important hormone, Leptin, is released. It helps us to burn our own fat . Below is a link to website that explains this very well.
