[QUOTE="RosieLKH, post: 1319003, member: 108816"] So much of what has been said to others has been said to me, most often by family members! The last 6 years have been a voyage of discovery for me and I have been retraining myself in all sorts of ways. The biggest thing to get my head around was allowing myself to eat without guilt. I actually took part in a mindfullness course which got me there (though to be honest I tend to think of such courses as a bit airy fairy), although I didn't lose any weight, but stopped damaging myself on a diet and binge roundabout. Then I discover LCHF and realise it's something my body takes to quite well. I feel well on it, I lose a bit of weight and I think I've finally accepted I'm in it for the long term too. My metabolism adjusts very well to low cal diets. I don't lose weight on them and then pile it on when I eat 'normally'. It took half a century to reach nearly 20st, so getting it off might well take a while. In four years I've lost a stone a year. It's slow, but I'll take that loss as good. It's going down, rather than up and my body doesn't think I'm starving it. I still go off the rails, but I coming to know when I do that I do actually feel rubbish. My skin gets worse and I will get a yeast infection. I'm learning from my body's reactions and that is helping me stay on track. [/QUOTE]
