Thank you @Scott F. and @Orweller, I am already browsing through the forum topics! @Slambo I had sort of an "ick" phase being headachy, tired, and sometimes nauseous last week, but now I seem to have moved past that. I had a hungry day yesterday, but today is a meh, not hungry day.

@Slambo thanks! Glad to see others that have just started. Are you through the ick phase? My husband has no problem with what I eat, but he did think my "pizza" omelet was a little weird tonight. Eggs are what I am eating when I can't figure out what exactly I want and I have no ground beef thawed. @Meathead Honestly, the 35 pounds is pretty amazing for 3 months, but that you have improved your neuropathy is insane! I have several diabetics in my family and friend circle, T1 and T2, and neuropathy is a common topic, it can be excruciating for them. Thanks @Geezy!

Hi! I'm Amber. I have been on various low carb diets before with quite a bit of success, but in all of those successes, it was when I severely limited even veggies that I found myself feeling the best. So, after gaining all and more back, I decided maybe adding all of those "safe carbs" back was a bad idea, and it was a gateway to definitely NOT safe carbs that I started craving! My first week I had some decent headaches, but only one migraine day and I consider that an absolute success. It has become obvious to me in the last couple years that sugar greatly exacerbates my migraines. I am doing classic carnivore, so meats, dairy, and some spices, coffee, and tea. I am going to try to slowly wean myself off of those extras. I have cut many of the spices already. I weightlift 3 times a week, full body. I have been doing that for years off and on, so I am not adding any extra exercise. I also hike with a backpack with my husband on some weekends. I joined a forum because it seems that I do the best when I can actually read other peoples' trials and successes and interact with people doing the same thing, and I don't think the forums on My Fitness Pal go any further than keto. Thanks for reading!
