    I think avoiding strict diets, at least those perceived as strict, is not a good idea for everyone. Sometimes eating the "right" foods us exactly what makes weight loss or better health achievable.

    I eat rice cakes or noodles in moderation I crave more and calorie moderation goes out the window. I limit carbs and avoid certain foods and calorie moderation becomes easy.

    A strict diet does not equal an eventual binge and loss of control for everyone.
    I think you may have misunderstood me, but you're actually pointing at something very important - what feels strict, is individual and subjective, what we call things, can be a little different, and what is right for one person can be totally wrong for another. We all need reasonable boundaries, but exactly what is reasonable, is personal and situational. That's why it's so important to attack this at both sides simultaneously - knowing the universal principles, and your own preferences, and understanding what's what.

    I apologize if I misunderstood.

    It is good there are so many options out there. Being aware of them makes it more likely that one will find what works best for them.

    No worries. I need to work on being clear to others, not just to myself :D
    I think many options is a blessing and a curse at the same time. When there are too many, its harder to choose. Being aware of the process behind something, is even more important when there are so many different, seemingly contradictory advice for achieving the same result.

    Thanks for your input everyone . I know I need to find something that works ... currently I feel satiated in keto and the only thing I miss is wine ! Once I achieve the loss I am looking for, I will slowly return to a regular caloric intake and limiting carbs but not as extremely, as I continue to exercise .
    I definitely need to adhere to ‘everything in moderation.’ I seem to have little control when I get my hands on sugar, it’s just easier to avoid it entirely right now.
    Thankfully I only felt withdrawal symptoms during the first week of keto.

    I will however, look forward to eating more greens. I don’t think veggies should be limited - unless one is consuming corn potatoes or peas .
