I had bread last week at the burger night for the first time in about 2 months, I weirdly dont miss bread. But potatoes and pasta and rice I will murder someone for it
ja hey, the whole no carbs thing is a huge killer. im not a huge fruit fan unless the fruit is liquidized, and bacon and eggs for breakfast is quite expensive, not to mention time consuming to make everydayâŚ

I havent cut carbs completely, I will seriously murder because of it, but instead of a whole potato I only have half, and smaller portions of pasta and rice.
Luckily I do love my veg so I have no problem with that.
carbs are bad for you Hmmmkay, but the problem is that we (as humans) tend to take in too much of it.
âVleis, rys en aartappelsâ - Thatâs like meat and two starch. Pick one and move on.
Sugar was the easiest thing for me to give up, iâve been sugar free for 3 years now.

However having said that, when I was on the Dukan diet and while I was banting I did lose over 23kgâŚso yes, it does work, just takes a bucket load of effort

Congrats on the 4kgs lost! Thatâs good work! Stop telling yourself itâs a diet though. Itâs not, itâs a new lifestyle. If cutting out carbs works for you, thatâs fine, but itâs not necessary. The problem with carbs is that itâs too easy too eat an unbalanced meal with it. If you can maintain eating balanced meals, you can add carbs.

ja i think its because we have been âindoctrinatedâ since childhood to have carbs with almost everything we eat, where as if we didnt we probably wouldnt struggle so much with it. Its a habbit that can be broken if you really want to, i just dont i love bread or chips just too much to cut it out foreverâŚ
just talking about bread makes me want a damned sandwhich

That is what I am doing, I have more veg and not 2 carbs like veg. I also have my fruit smoothie for lunch, breakfast is just 2 whole wheat/bran rusks - home made with no sugar in. I am trying very hard not to think diet - the problem is the family - they harp on and on about diet - what they dont realise is by watching me non stop - makes me mentally harde gat and then I want to eat the stuff I shouldnt. So far I have been good at not, I also when I do have something sweet like I had 1 cupcake for my bday, instead of a pack. I am getting better at saying no.

The hard part is just the âsupportâ the family gives. Aka let you dare eat something they think is horrible in front of them - the guilt they pack on is not fun
Yeah, but thatâs THEIR problem, not yours.

Yeah, can be tough when people around you are non-supportive. Or make silly comments like âGoing to the gym again?â
Eventually you will learn to filter out the rubbish. Or just invite them to do a 5k
