Ok then.
I would eat some carbs and fats with each meal.
But I would use lower GI carbs and the last meal should be a protein and fat only like eggs or something similar.

I find the lower carb diets easier to follow only because they tend to leave me with more stable even blood sugar levels. I tend to not overfeed if I keep the carbs lower.
Vegetables would be my number one choice for diet, then the lower GI fruits like berries and apples.
Adding apple pectin to each meal will slow down the glycemic load, add soluable fiber to your diet and let that meal exit the stomach a bit slower.
Add good reasons to add this to your diet and it will lower your cholesterol too.

Just a few tidbits about fiber. 35 grams of fiber burn 250 calories.
Just eating something like celery will actually have negative calories due to the amount of fiber compared to the energy you get from the celery.
See how just little modifications in diet can add up?

1 gallon of ice water burns 150 calories.
So 1 gallon of water and 35 grams of fiber will equal 400 cals extra burned in a day. Just 20 minutes of cardio or just over 1 piece of bread and you got 500 cals a day reduction and at the end of the week 1 lb fat loss.

You will lose some muscle unless you keep something like GH or gear in the mix.

Smaller, more frequent meals work well.
