@DC5FAN @LawrenceGerald @GoyGirl @s2208 @ChadleyDudebro @tyler @arm_barbarian I don't know of any religious examples but here are some resources i used when i was lost 300 pounds.

Dietdoctor.com This is a site run by scandanvian doc and has lots of different stuff like articles and recipes etc

The big fat surprise by Nina Teicholz. This is a book written by a female science writer who got detailed to write reviews of fine dining restaurants where she ate very rich food and began to lose weight to her surprise.

The big thing in my humble is to go low carb. We just aren't designed to eat the types and amounts of sugar we eat today. Good luck!
