I lost around 40 pounds using low carb methods. Should this make me less confident in anything you say when you promote other ways to lose weight?

Congratulations.

I think there's some support for the idea of trying to lose weight slowly, without cutting caloric intake too much more than it takes to see some progress (tricky when to see it you have to average over several days, or, for women, a month)
