[QUOTE="Patch13, post: 377666, member: 58178"] Hi, Sorry to hear you are having such a hard time! I can definitely relate to what you are going through. I have been seriously low carbing since January, but in March I found it difficult for a couple of weeks and on one occassion ate a HUGE amount of chocolate and when I say huge I mean a box of roses followed by a tub of malteasers in about 2 - 3 days. Opps! (on the positive side I refused myself bread and pasta and all the other yummy carby things I miss). For me to get back to the low-carb thing I found that I needed to cut out all sugar - including not eating the protein bars that I had been enjoying far too many of and fruit. After a few days of excluding these I found it a lot easier to stick to not eating carbs (probably partly because my sugars were not as erratic). Now I am doing really well on the low carbing and feel a lot more positive about it (and about myself) again. I'm glad to see you are thinking about approaching your GP about the depression - catch it before it becomes a real pain and even more difficult to treat / recover from. I know it is hard to ask for help, but definitely worth doing it. It's also great to see your husband is low carbing too - mine does and it certainly makes cooking and sticking to it a lot easier. Good luck! :D [/QUOTE]
