Thanks hun. It's been long and I still have a long way to go but my brain has finally realised that I'm not on a diet and this is my life now.

I had bloods done last year that showed I was pre-diabetic, I was insulin resistant, high cholesterol and high triglycerides and crazy low vitamin d levels and terrible liver enzymes.
I got more bloods done last month and everything is now in the perfect zone. That alone makes me know what I am doing is right for me

I haven't been on BB for months and decided to pop on and see what has been happening. So glad I did when I discovered this thread!

I have been following a strict ketogenic diet since 2 January this year and have just reached my pre-baby weight (still have another 4kgs to get back to my wedding weight, but first things first, I say). Anyway, I just love this way of eating. I have energy and don't get that awful 3-hourly hunger anymore. My carbs are currently between 25g and 100g each day and I have been in ketosis 100% of the time in the past 6 months (I have one of those blood monitor thingos which are well worth the $$, I think). Anyway, it's nice to share an eating methodology with other people here when there is so much tut-tutting about how supposedly unhealthy it is out in the rest of the world (though my GP is a big advocate, so things are changing slowly). I have developed a list of recipes with all of the listed macros (thanks MFP!) and am happy to share them with anyone who is interested

Well done, Lisa - that's incredible! I was proud of my 20kg loss, but I've got nothing on yours LOL!
