[QUOTE="TriciaWs, post: 2225457, member: 475901"] As Mouseee, seeing the impact of my mother continuing to eat sweets, cakes, chocolate while first losing the ability to walk more than a few shuffled paces and then losing most of her sight helped me get the willpower to go low carb. I still have days when it is difficult but one thing I did early on was to carefully plan food for travel days and lunches out - something easy to transport and enjoyable to eat so I didn't feel left out. I thought about my food triggers and found substitutes, then I filled the front of my fridge with quick low carb/carb free snacks so they were always the first thing I saw, and stored some single slices of a low carb cake in the freezer. As I live alone, I sorted out the fridge, freezer and cupboard and donated things I no longer eat to friends and family remoing temptation (maybe I should have binned it all but as said F&F would buy them otherwise I didn't feel guilty about supporting their bad habits) [/QUOTE]
