[QUOTE="SockFiddler, post: 1521057, member: 412001"] Funnily enough, [USER=41816]@Brunneria[/USER] , while I'd describe my week as "miserable", I don't think I'd go as far as "horror story", which I know seems like a picky differential to make. I wasn't surprised by how awful it was, and I was aware of the process I was undertaking - and then of how poorly I'd managed to plan for it. But I also recognised that it was the start of a much longer process and that it wouldn't last long. And, of course, I was reading everything I could find about carb-cutting on this site and anonymously sucking up the community's support. I think it's easy to end up with a horror story if you don't really understand what you're in it for - it just becomes an exercise in self-punishment - but if you've done a bit of homework, you gain perspective and it becomes much less of a mountain to climb. Though, let's be honest, even if you do experience a horror story when you hit that stage, there are literally thousands of folks here all willing you on and ready with a quick word of encouragement and advice, something you, in particular, excel at. <3 [/QUOTE]
