I would like you to write a letter of advice to yourself, as if you were writing to your best friend. What would you tell HIM if he were in your shoes and struggling with cravings and emotional voids? Ask him what his goals are and write down his answers. And what would be your response? Would you tell him to "man up" or to "get some balls"? I don't know, maybe you would (LOL), but I don't think so. Write down a list of foods that you love or crave, especially high-carb ones, and then try to find suitable replacement foods so you don't feel deprived (sugar-free hot cocoa, maybe, or low carb chocolate pudding (in moderate quantities). I personally don't believe that extremes or deprivation suit your temperament. And you really can't kill the evil twin inside of you; you must appease him, bring him over to your side:-) In any event, be KIND to yourself and your body will reward you!Didirinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10600207452839363505noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2448531891918817498.post-89300000073272386432009-02-08T08:44:00.000-08:002009-02-08T08:44:00.000-08:00Didrina, thank you so much for your advice.

Its like saying to a cocazine addict that the only way you can break out of your habit is to stop snorting cocaine all together! Great, he would have never known! It reminds me of my sarcastic ass friend. Every time he sees a car that is banged up , he pulls next to it at the red light and asks the driver '' Have you seen what happened to your side of the car, its really banged up!Vadimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07676919768303339605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2448531891918817498.post-18622307940608041492009-02-06T14:51:00.000-08:002009-02-06T14:51:00.000-08:00DudeThe only way you are going to break the carb a...Dude<BR/><BR/>The only way you are going to break the carb addiction cycle is dropping them all together.That's right Meat and Water.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2448531891918817498.post-77868981377455215062009-02-06T07:05:00.000-08:002009-02-06T07:05:00.000-08:00Thanks Harry, I read it.

Dr Feinman is a friend of Mike and they often share topics for postings. Dr Feinman is an editer of Metabolism and Nutrition today, which is pretty good journal for low carb readers. He is crazy about low carb and is known as that crazy carb guy on campus!Vadimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07676919768303339605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2448531891918817498.post-38229662975480810002009-02-05T22:08:00.000-08:002009-02-05T22:08:00.000-08:00Mr. V,Sybil shared this wonderful article on her b...Mr. V,<BR/><BR/>Sybil shared this wonderful article on her blog.

That alone is a step in the right direction. :)<BR/><BR/>I don't believe in accidents either. I believe that everything in your life is there for a reason, to teach you SOMETHING. Even if you don't know what that is right now, maybe someday you will. Maybe you will never know. Everything happens for a reason. Even the tough time your going thru right now, is for you to learn something from it. <BR/><BR/>Hang in there, remember we are here for you.NewVisionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17356754501467188071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2448531891918817498.post-82914174566747495752009-02-05T18:50:00.000-08:002009-02-05T18:50:00.000-08:00I'm here to cheer you on.
