[QUOTE="Roggg, post: 2310432, member: 489176"] Meter is great...I agree with others. Here's some other things that helped me the first few times I went low-carb. [LIST] [*]Eat as much as you want as often as you want if it's low carb while adjusting. I remember eating a dozen eggs one evening. [*]Keep busy during the worst times. I used to go for walks while the wife and kids were eating if it was pasta or rice or something else "craveable". [*]Drink lots of water. Get plenty of salt and electrolytes too. [*]Full-on keto is actually easier (once adapted) than "kinda low carb". It sounds counter-intuitive, but the near total absence of carbs forces the body to use fat instead, while moderately low carb doesn't quite get your body there so you have more hunger and cravings. [/LIST] It gets easier the longer you do it and the more committed you are to it. Most of all, just know that it is worth it, and you can do it. [/QUOTE]
