Looking for accountability buddies!
Hey! I'm looking for friends on this site. I have 25kg to lose (55lb) and I'm getting married in April 2019. I lost 10kg (22lb) when I first started but fell off the wagon big time.
I now realise that I am addicted to sugar/carbs and can't "have just one" even if I can justify it until the cows come home.
I live in Christchurch New Zealand. Add me as a friend and we can encourage each other to reach our goals!

Hi and welcome! 55 lbs is an ambitious goal, but not impossible. I did exactly that amount in about a 6 month period, so it can be done. I totally relate to the sugar addiction. The holidays, starting with Halloween is usually my downfall. But I know the fat will fall off as soon as I become fat adapted again. It's okay to take a day off and indulge, particularly when with family and friends. Don't beat yourself up for it. That's probably the worst thing you can do. The next day just jump right back into your keto routine. The longer you are in it the less you have those cravings.

Hi Georgie, welcome I’m on day 6 . I’ve been having a diet pop for something sweet and or sugar free jello with whipped cream as my go to when I need a treat. Pinterest has great recipes and things for low carb snacks. Good Luck! You can do this 🙂 I remember when I was getting married a while back I was motivated to lose the weight
