I'd love one too, if you have time! What a selfless offer :)

Very interesting POV! :)

Friend request sent - good for you for getting so far and getting back on here!

Woohoo indeed! YAY YOU!

You are amazing :)

From what I understand about ADD/ADHD, Adderall will be great for treating kids (bring them down a bit) but have the opposite effect on adults (make them hyper)? On the upside, you'll have lots of energy (just what you want with ADHD, haha).

You can do it!

This may be true. I always think working out (at least in early LC days) that when normal people say "I hit the wall", that's where the low-carbers start. But it doesn't mean we can't work out, just that we have to be more determined - and your body does get used to burning fat instead of carbs!
-
"That's just fact". As someone who has eaten low-carb for a year, lost 25kg (60-ish pounds), works out just fine, I'd like to know where you get your "facts" from, cos clearly my body wasn't aware. What I eat - meat, eggs, cheese, green/ leafy veges, and limited amounts of berries. I eat less fat and more veg than my…

ABBA!

Some of the people in this thread have lost an AMAZING amount of weight - fantastic going! That's what I'm here for, and why I sometimes read the threads :)

Perhaps you are having issues because you expect guys to reject you based on size, and are putting that vibe out there? I have been attractive to LOTS of guys at 230lbs, because I assume I will be and am confident in myself. You get what you expect, expect that because you are an attractive person (cute as a button in your…

I've seen a couple of you say "I write better" and I believe you - send me the links?

I need to. I know that when I eat less, I gain weight. However I have PCOS and coeliac disease and there is only so much chicken salad that I can handle! If I could eat more of my meat/ leafy greens/ cheese I know I'd lose more weight.

I want to sit in my boyfriends lap again.

You are within cooee of my size and I lose best at about 1600 cals plus exercise cals, so I think you are likely eating too much.
-
I have PCOS and insulin resistance - if I eat more than a bare minimum number of carbs, it doesn't matter how much or little I eat or exercise, I will consistently gain weight. Low carb doesn't always make me lose (my body is pretty determined) but it is the only thing that ever works for me. Plus, bacon!

Mine too!

I stay under about 35g carb per day, and I count calories to make sure I get enough. My natural net calorie intake (after exercise) can be between 300-800 if I don't pay attention, which stops me losing weight.
-
HAHAHA so true!
-
The recommendation for a low-carb diet certainly applies to all of us PCOS girls - I can eat 800 cals a day and exercise like a demon, on recommended food pyramid macros and gain weight. The only way I can lose (and most PCOS girls can lose) is on low carb. A calorie is not just a calorie. People always say "but then I…

150-154lbs was about perfect for me (that height), lower made me get lots of gaunt comments.

The people that swim flat tack in the slow lane cos there's other people in the fast lane, and splash everywhere they go! There's a special circle of hell reserved for them.
