Hi everyone :wave:
Since getting a bummer neurological disorder I have been forced to take a cocktail of potent pain meds for life. The problem is I crave sugar and carbs non stop due to the meds and have piled on the kilos partially because I dont get around like a use to.

It doesn't help that I live in Thailand with rice being a huge part of the diet although I dont know why Thais seem unaffected by it :)

nice to meet you all!

Welcome! I was prescribed meds for pain management that have the side effect of carb craving. These cravings usually have me going INSANE until I get carbs and I actually get kind of mean :/. The docs recently upped my dosage so I was thinking "Oh joy, the cravings are going to get worse." They've actually subsided. I don't know why...but I'm thankful.

I currently live in Okinawa, Japan! So we're close! Rice is a big staple here, as well...and noodles. I'm going to miss my curry and ramen!
