[QUOTE="RAW1tu, post: 2427307, member: 537218"] Hi Robert I agree with both Geordie_P and danziger. Several months ago my girlfriend suggested the keto diet. I had always been a ravenous eater. There was no just a dish of ice cream, though it started there, and usually ended with me consuming almost a half gallon. Eating just a slice of pie was just the start of the whole thing. Stopping at a bakery, buying a 1/2 dozen chocolate eclairs . After eating the second one , my mind seemed to say enough.. Yet my hand without hesitation went back and the rest disappeared in less than 15 minutes. Same with everything I ate. I feel for you because I have also been there. The keto diet changed all that for me. At first I didn't think I could do it, thinking this isn't enough food. Well I soon discovered I was wrong. In three months I shed 28lbs. consuming roughly 2,500 calories a day with a daily walk. Looking for snack alternatives at nighttime I discovered pork rinds with pub cheese. Awesome I thought. Soon the bowl was empty, then the bag, then the container of pub cheese. The 1,100 calories I wasn't worried about. However the pub cheese had <1 carb. per serving there were 10 servings. Had this happened with a high carb snack my blood sugar would have shot through the roof. However the sodium content raised my blood pressure. I am not saying the keto diet is for everyone, but it is worth a try. What I have noticed is that I do not crave sweets or snacks throughout the day which is strange. I wish you an answer and good luck in your journey. [/QUOTE]
