Since I mentioned it in the forks/knives thread in general, I figure its time to post here and get back into it.
I really shut down pretty badly over the last couple months of 2013. My exercising slowed and eventually stopped after my foot problems last year, and the good eating habits eventually followed. The lowest I weighed was 294. By the time I got ready to get my shit together again I had gained almost 30 pounds, getting back up to 323.
About 2 weeks ago I started doing the keto diet, low carb/high fat. The most success I've ever had dieting has been with low carb years ago, but I hadn't kicked sodas at the time and those cravings eventually killed it. Now I'm at a place where I haven't had a soda in a year and a half, so I'm hoping for more success this time around.
With my horrible eating in December my blood sugars had started to become a small problem again, and getting the carbs/sugar out of there immediately fixes that. I've been doing this for 2 weeks and feel better than i have in months.
Luckily, the weight seems to be falling off very quickly at least for now. In the past two weeks I've dropped from 323 to 315.
Will try to stick with it and provide updates, etc
