I have no idea how this got so heated, disagree agree who cares? It’s just a little theory, it’s based on my experience and i’m not trying to force anything down anyone’s throat, there is a proportion of people who will understand. Very odd reaction.
I guess this may be more of a female problem, a lot of women just need to wait it out, they strive and strive and strive upping/lowering calories, lowering/upping fat, ditto protein and exercise and then when they finally relax and just wait for a bit they start to loose (my experience exactly). Female hormones are complex and also women are taught to hate their bodies when they are not perfect. So this message is to those select few who are punishing themselves by eating less and less and working harder and harder to stop, let themselves heal physically and psychologically.
For me Keto has been very healing emotionally as a survivor of childhood sexual abuse and domestic violence and I just wanted to share that. I would happily delete the whole damn thread but people seem interested even if opposing so… i bow out for i have nothing to add. Peace
