Yeah, the last 6 months have been pretty difficult for me and I really feel for people who relapse, the withdrawal symptoms were unbelievable at times and seemed to go on for months and months... just non-stop clawing-the-walls grinding-my-teeth cravings... and I hear they can crop up years later at unexpected times. This weed is the devil! I hope to never go through what I've been through again so maybe remembering how bad it was will help me stay away from tobacco for life.
But I'd really be able to lose weight again someday too. I just hope my metabolism isn't permanently messed up from this! I don't want to slow it down further by restricting calories too much either, but I'm getting tired of gaining. Even just maintaining at what is a high weight for me is looking pretty good right now.
Edit: I should add I've been strict LC for about 5 years now so I'm probably very keto-adapted... maybe that's why Atkins hasn't worked so well for me to prevent gaining.
