hello everybody!
I used to write here a year ago and during that year I have been on and off the low carb diet more than I would care to admit. at the end I lost 5 kilos but because of the yo yo dieting not much fat has gone with that. I just finished my first year at university. I'm 22 and studying in a different country. it was a very hard year for me as I moved to a new country by myself and had to start a whole new life. I have been on and off diets since I was 13 and it worked but then when I was 20 I started gaining and could not cheat my way into a normal body any more. I know I have a lot of problems with food, emotional ones but I don't want to give up. I know this diet works and it is all about doing it for life. And still, it seems whenever I am doing it right I find a way to destroy my success and cheat, I don't even have cravings anymore it is purely psychological. my mother is 50 years old and had a lyposuction (I'm sure I spelled it wrong, I'm not a native speaker) and it has been a year and she already gained back most of the fat. I don't want to spend my life obsessing about food and want to spend the rest of my adult life happy with my body. I am looking for someone close to my age that understands the pressures of being 22 and can share their experience with me and could maybe get the same support from me.
