I was diagnosed with gallstones and mild fatty liver. I decided to follow the low fat diet, mentioned in Jean's post from 2011 below because I too notice inches on my stomach with anything but a low fat diet. Healthy fats I can have in small quantities but butter, oil and junk food are the real culprits for me. I looked up and followed the Starch Solution diet by Dr John McDougal. On his website, there are patient accounts of curing themselves of fatty liver following his diet.
I have been on it more or less consistently since January of this year, it is now November, and I have lost over sixty pounds! I had my appt with the gi doctor and he said I cured myself! Fatty liver is reversed and he said to leave the gallstones alone unless they bother me.

Hi, just to let everyone know who is really serious about weight loss that it is possible that ingestion of dietary fat could very well cause insulin resistance in some people, which blocks weight loss. Maybe not for everyone but it's worth a try. Even good fats and high fat natural foods such as nuts and avocados must be eaten very sparingly. Some may disagree but it works for me every time. If I continue to eat more than a very small amount of even good fats, it doesn't matter how little food I eat or how much I exercise, the inches pile up around the middle. When I go off fats the inches melt off within a week or two. I eat plenty of whole grains, potatoes, legumes, fruits, vegetables, and small amount of nuts. You won't go hungry eating this. I would love to hear of someone else who can't lose weight despite their best efforts trying this.
