Looking for accountability

Hi. A couple of years ago I lost 30 pounds through calories and exercise, and found LCHF and after doing it felt so much better and my weight was dropping off. I started college and birthcontrol pills(No idea if they are affecting anything such as weight loss, had to switch pills multiple times now because their side effects with anxiety) and things just fell apart.

I'm tired of feeling so awful and really want to get back into the LCHF lifestyle. I would love to have some friends to keep me accountable and for any tips. My diary hasn't been used for months, and it may take me a few days to buy groceries and get on track, but I am definitely going to start back. Feel free to add me :)

    I accept new friends! Don't use my diary everyday anymore, after learning this woe I don't find it necessary. I will log a random day to kind of check myself. Wonderful group of people here who are super great to learn from!

    I am no expert,but estrogen pills could affect your body balance.Have you thought of another method,maybe an IUD?

    I've considered an IUD. I've never met with a gyno but I plan on doing so within a month and discussing it with them. Hopefully will have some insight on what will be best. :)

    Anyone can add me too.

    I took bc when I was younger and had serious issues with the hormonal ones, insane mood swings, depression, anxiety, acne, weight gain. They affect the hormones which can absolutely cause weight issues and mess up your normal cycle for a while afterwards. Check with your Dr if you think it is affecting you in that way, there are other methods that may not cause issue for you.
