I have to admit my experiences have been the other way around, the lower carbs I went the better I felt, when I was doing Zero Carb my depression symptoms disappeared completely and shark week I had no cravings at all - something I am anxious to get back to

Woo hoo, today has been great - found it very easy to stay on track and haven't felt like eating carbs at all - not quite sure what has been different but it definitely feels great and I hope it carries on like this

I am jumping back onboard SW - 282lbs GW - 140lbs

I have one of those vibrio plates, that has turned into a clothes horse @samanthaluangphixay - I seem to go through phases of getting different equipment and it all falls into wasteland, I have found walking outside makes me feel so much better and it's free

I have back pain and stomach pain - so not quite joint pain, but I do notice certain foods make things worse - I know carbs definitely make things worse and also certain veggies too - am in the process of trying to identify which ones I need to avoid

Hope the dentist goes ok later @ProCoffeenator I am feeling very positive today, first time I have felt like this in a long time - so I am pushing myself to go as LC as I can manage - not quite aiming for ZC today, but think I am going to get pretty close - so glad to be back feeling good Think my positive thoughts a day…

I have read about someone who regularly does water fasting, but that was more for histamine intolerance and it helps to improve that for a while. I would love to give fasting a go, but need to get back on track with the food first - good luck with whatever you choose to do.

I love Aldi, their meat is fantastic quality here in the U.K., as I tend to do ZC as much as I can this means my food bill stays reasonable while eating good quality steaks - it's fab

My mindset is getting better everyday, food yesterday was better and I didn't binge which is a great step forward, my meals were planned and I stuck to the plan, so today I am going to take the leap of faith and see if I can do a full day of LC without the binge in the evening - the really annoying thing is the evening…

Still struggling to get through the day fully without resorting to carbs, but the cravings are getting less so I am doing something right, been out shopping today and haven't bought anything Carb heavy for me (although have a few bits for my son as he won't give them up yet) so am keeping them separate away from my stuff…

Hiya to you all, haven't been on for ages, but jumping back into the fray, have put on nearly all the weight I lost last year so starting again - going to take each day as it comes - and get back on track slowly, hopefully by the end of January I will be back to <20g carbs, has been a tough stressy few months but 2017 is a…

I loved it when I did meat only and my aim is to get back there this year, not only did my body feel better for it, I lost all depression symptoms, my ultimate goal is to get back to ZC and stay there

I started in the class of 2016 - did really well before life kicked in and I lost my way, but am jumping back on the wagon knowing this WOE is the most fantastic thing I have ever done and going to aim to make 2017 the year I finally kick binge eating, and weight issues for good

Ok putting it out there my stats to begin this new year:- Starting weight - 20st 2lbs Goal weight - 10st Target for January - to lose 1st

I am not a newbie anymore, but really looking forward to getting back onboard the wagon and feeling the love from all you lovely people again

A lot of my resolutions are mentally related - am not going to do the usual lose weight exercise more resolutions as these tend to prove too much stress so mine this new year are as follows:- 1. Keep a journal - making notes of positive things that are happening 2. Work on my binge eating issues and try to overcome them 3.…

Seriously need this, have had a bad end to 2016 - but 2017 is going to be a much calmer and more positive year, going to be working on my mindset and dealing with binge eating problems, and definitely aiming to get back to under 20g Carb total - although first plan is to get the eating under control first. Have put on…

Has been tough getting back on track, but it's a new month and had my weigh in today and have lost 4.5lbs this week, it wasn't a perfect week but to get that from a not good week just what could I achieve, going to give myself a good talking to and take this new month as a fresh start. Time to hit the ZC life fully - this…

I am starting to feel more in control, had a good day yesterday no majors off track - so feeling good and hoping I can end the year really well - set myself a goal to have lost 5st this year - I am not quite going to manage that, but I think 4st is possible which considering I could have ended up back where I started I am…

Have been struggling to get back on track but taking each day as it comes and eventually it will become easier

I found I went the other way, have suffered with depression for over 25 years and have been on and off meds for many years, when I started low carb my body started to feel better and I eventually attempted zero carb (under 5g per day) and was able to give up all meds - I have fallen off the wagon and have found the…

Finally starting to feel more positive, has taken me a few months, but can see the light at the end of the tunnel

Had a bad day yesterday - but I am keeping strong and keeping ZC in my sight every day I will strive to do it, as even if I have a blip if the majority of the day is good I am going to keep getting to my goal, maybe a little slower than I would if I was perfect, but I know I am always going to have a battle with food

Finally decided to get around to changing my name on here so gone from kathrout1973 which is extremely boring (my name and birth year) to something a bit more fun - as I am doing meat (ZC) my son calls me a carnivore so my nickname on games we play together is carnivorekat -

Yay to finding the light switch, that's half the battle. I did almost perfect yesterday but had a little blip just before bed - most of what I ate yesterday was processed meats though so today going for pure cuts of meat see if it stops the temptations - ended the day with stomach pain again, somalso hoping pure meat will…

I did lighterlife (TFR) - lost loads of weight ended up having an almighty binge on KFC and ended up in hospital thinking I was having a heart attack - thankfully was just indigestion, I have done TFR since then but always been careful about what I ate when I have gone back onto food - although find LCHF much better - lose…

I am definitely doing it @esaucier17 - today was a complete day on track so pleased with myself - although I am having a long term goal of getting to 2017 doing ZC, I have also made a pact with @PamamaJane to take each day as it comes and aim for perfection one day at a time. My food choices today still weren't perfect but…

Oooh that's worth trying - I had smoked streaky bacon, which I don't usually have - will get some without the nitrates and see - as I love bacon

I totally understand how you are feeling, have had an awful few months where I have fallen off track big time have struggled to get back on track again but think I am finally getting there, definitely see this woe as a journey where I will have detours occasionally- I know I am able to do it properly and feel great doing…

Ok my first full day back on plan, had eggs and bacon for breakfast and my gastro pain is back so not happy as love my bacon - but think I need to stop eating it as need to get my gut pain under control - I will admit that carbs didn't have the same effect on my stomach when I was eating them - although had a lot of…
