[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I gave up carbs pretty much, except what I need to get 30+ grams of fiber daily. No sugar. Very limited flour (only in low carb bread or tortillas). No rice, grains, bread, pasta, etc. Instead I eat 25+ grams of protein per meal and low carb veggies.

I also stopped eating breakfast, which I never really liked but ate as an example for my kids. Instead, I have large coffee with about 3/4 cup of protein milk. Eat a meal at noon, a high protein snack in the mid afternoon and dinner by 7 pm.

This completely stopped my binge eating. For me there was something about carb consumption that made me want to eat more carbs - I never felt satiated and I could pound a bag of cookies, chips, bread, cake or pasta.

It may sound like a big change, but is actually much easier for me this way.

No exercise. Pounds kind of melted off.  [/quote]
Agree with this - eating carbs (not just empty junk like crackers but also rice and pasta) makes me hungrier and I eat a ton. Limiting them is the only thing that works for me. [/quote]

Thank you for validating this. My doctors make me feel crazy, while I was overweight, telling me that low carb doesn’t work and pushing me to eat less meat and more grains, pasta and whole grain bread. [/quote]
