I wish you well on your journey. Low carb eating can have marvelous health benefits that go well beyond the loss of weight. One thing that I would recommend you think about is to consider this new way of eating as a long term life style change rather than a diet, which people often think of as a temporary fix. Those of us who have had long term success in losing weight and improving our health have found that sticking to this new way of eating beyond any weight loss goals is what keeps us healthy long term. So much of changing the way we eat is not just learning what to eat and what not to eat but changing our entire attitude towards eating, changing our relationship to food. Low carb eating can result in many long term mental health benefits as well as physical benefits. I wish you well.
