[QUOTE="catapillar, post: 1217460, member: 32394"] Thanks [USER=93504]@sally and james[/USER] I'm 30 and no other menopausal symptoms. Thanks [USER=41816]@Brunneria[/USER] google does throw up quite a lot of results for low carb causing periods to stop, but to be honest these are mostly from "lifestyle bloggers" - the theory, from them, appears to be that your body establishes a default carb intake for fertility during puberty and if you drop under this, no more periods - something to do with low leptin levels. But, obviously, I'm a bit dubious as to the scientific basis of the lifestyle bloggers theories. I just thought I'd check whether there was any more experience from the forum. [USER=88961]@AndBreathe[/USER] I would say 90-110 is my standard daily carb intake. The days of 70 or 130 would definitely be the more unusual days. I'm sitting quite stable at or just under 8st, pretty steady. I don't think it's a huge weight loss. It's not an especially noticeable weight loss - I've gone from a 10/12 to an 8/10. It's pretty much what I expected. I'd usually sit around 8 st 8 to 8st 12. So, if asked I'd say I weight 8 and a half stone. Yep, the range would go with cycle. [/QUOTE]
