I've been doing no carbs for the last few months and as long as I am on no carbs, I'm losing weight and feeling really good. I continue to go off though and when I do - well watch out! I just don't stop until I've packed on the pounds again and have to start "dieting" all over. Although I've managed to lose more than I've gained back I find it difficult to maintain the low carb diet because I crave carbs. How do you guys balance your diet so that it's healthy and you are not feeling deprived.

Hi Lori,

Most of us read one or more of the low-carb books to find which plan is more suitable to us, and to understand the science of it, the side effects etc.

I strongly recommend doing so, as it's not advisable to go zero-carb, and you'll have better luck when armed with the information.
