it's a mental block for me - i need some support
i am on day 21 of LCHF diet. i hit a stumbling block a few nights ago; my psychiatrist prescribed a new med, and i can't drink while i'm on it, so i had 2 nights where i drank a bottle of wine (divided between the two nights) before i started my med yesterday. other than that, i've done well and have lost almost 13 lbs.…

anyone on latuda, seroquel or abilify
i was on seroquel for BPD and it raised my cholesterol to ridiculous levels. so then i was given latuda and i start taking it tomorrow. chances are high that i will gain weight (it happened with the seroquel and i was eating a VERY strict diet - ended up gaining about 40 lbs...i know alot of people think that's a myth)…

I.F.

trans fat
i am just curious about trans fat. i am trying desperately to avoid them at all costs. "accidentally" had them in my mcD's patty yesterday (long story as to why i ate there...) anyway, if i get a chicken leg with skin, don't put any breading on it, and fry it in coconut oil, will that produce trans fat? i am wondering how…

protein
I was reading an article about many people being on a LCHF diet who consume too much protein. I believe this is one of my issues. Would someone like to list their favorite high fat, low protein foods that they consume? Thank you for any input!
