I'm currently taking 50mg Zoloft for anxiety. I've been on it for 2 months and not noticed any weight gain (only been low carb for 2 weeks) and I've not had a problem losing weight either. My appetite was reduced before this WOE and I was able to exercise without worrying about what people thought. It took 2-3 weeks for me…

I hit my macros 100% :smile:

I've dropped 2 shirt sizes in 7 weeks :smiley:

Well done! I've had a pretty disappointing day and wanted to eat junk food. I have lchf food to eat if I'm hungry but I know it's just a comfort thing :smile:

Me too :wink:

Oh no :neutral: Hope the hot flashes settle down too

Thanks for the link :smile: I'm glad to know what's going on and that things should settle in time.

I tried on jeans a size down. Not only did they zip up, they were a little loose :blush:

Thanks Sunny_Bunny_ :smile: I've felt much better since the treats are out of the house!

A weird NSV for me. I made some low carb chocolate ganache and it was amazing. Not many carbs but it was triggering cravings, calling me from the freezer. I took the remaining portions and threw them out. Before lchf, I would have eaten the rest and then felt guilty! :blush:

I have lost about 10lbs in the past 4 weeks and I have about 95lbs to lose in total. My macros are 5% carbs, 25% protein, 70% fat. I'm 5ft 6, 35 and don't do much exercise apart from walking as I have a desk job. I'll check out what my TDEE is so I have a better idea. Thanks for the tips :smile:

It is SO strange for me not to be hungry! I love it too but I still can't get my head round it :smile: I hope things balance out as I'm feeling much better since I went lchf!

Well, the meal is over. We were served a set meal of steak pie, potatos and vegetables. I ate the meat from the pie and green vegetables. Way over my usual 20g carbs per day but hoping it won't effect me too much

Thanks for all the replies :smile: I'm going to make the best choices I can when I'm there and pack a few snacks, just in case. The meal is tonight and everyone has made me feel much less stressed about it

Hi Karyln, Thanks for your reply. I'm hoping you're right and there will be a selection of dishes to choose from. I think I'll pack some snacks, just in case!

Hi, Thanks for replying. I'm trying to stay under 20g of total carbs a day. I'm just hoping it's not pasta :smile:

I'm unsure about exercise and calories as I am just starting out but I can see changes in your stomach. It has gone down and your skin seems to be shrinking back too :)

Exante shakes(total meal replacement) taste good, have no added nasties and can be purchased in bulk for a reasonable price. www.exantediet.com

WOW! Well done :)
