New Years plan

[Clairesyliz]

New Year is here and I really have to knuckle down and shift 5 plus stone. I'd started a few weeks ago but put back all the weight I'd lost over Christmas. Why is sugar SO addictive. I find once I start, I just can't stop eating. .Wishing everyone else here well for your weight loss journeys this year! ☺

Hi and welcome Claire

I leave the scientific stuff to those far more knowledgable then me It's enough for me to know that sugar is addictive and therefore eliminate it from my diet. Fortunately, the less you eat, the less you want, so in a very short space of time, the cravings fade away.

I would be lying if I said I don't wish I could have something sweet, but I make do with a nice cup of coffee with a big glug of cream

If you'd like to join me on my Trimming the Fat thread, I'd be delighted to have company. I guess the LCHF diet is so good, there aren't many fatties

Here's to 2016 seeing the back of those extra 5 stones

I can tell you, the support is fab! When I first started this diet, I didn't know my a**e from my elbow and everybody rallied to keep me on the right track. I can't thank them enough

2016 is going to be ace, I can feel it in my bones

Hi moreorless interested in the diet you mentioned in here, what sort of diet is it and is it difficult to keep to. Thanks and a Happy and healthy new yew to you Sann

Hi sann,

The easiest way to inform you, is by giving you this link

dietdoctor.com/

It takes a while to get used to, but isn't difficult to stick to, because you're never hungry and you eliminate foods that are addictive and cause cravings.

It definitely works too, I've lost 3st in 17 weeks

Good luck

Thanks very much for all the info. Very interesting. The best weight loss results I've ever had (about 10 yrs ago) have been through restricting all refined carbs. Just gotta work on weaning myself off them after a very over indulgent Christmas 😀

Me too, i have at least 4 to 5 stone to lose. I did found when i tried lchf a couple of months ago that the weight dropped off and i didnt feel hungry, and didnt seem to crave sweet things, i think the trick is just to stick with it. I realise now that i cant eat carbs, they do make me feel ill, if you tginkbabout them like that maybe it will help?? Good luck!! We're all in the same boat!!!

[NoMoreJunk in reply to Huawei1]

I am the same - carbs trigger my IBS so it's a major motivator for me to stay on track. I am now a healthy weight and it's through doing LCHF. I really see it as a lifestyle choice that I can continue so it's not a fad diet. Good luck and keep posting on here!
