I agree 100% with the two folks above. I found the same thing with lo-carb (especially now that 7-11 carries the low carb chocolate bars, so if I get the craving feeling I can have it). When I was on the low fat and gave myself one night of splurging per week I looked forward to that night and it was so hard to get back on track.

But now I feel like I am splurging every meal. It is much easier to follow and I don't miss the carbs like I did before. And it is a great motivation to be without pain all the time.

I talked to a friend of mine who is a vegetarian and she couldn't believe that I was pain free after switching to a meat diet. To her it didn't make sense but to me it did. I think the carbs were a poison to my body and it couldn't process all I was putting into it. The more carbs I ate the more I wanted.
