I'm scared to eat carbs
About three weeks ago, after finding out I have poly-cystic ovaries, I decided to reduce my carb intake - a lot. I have cut out all breads and starches. I feel much better, and have lost a little weight (with diet and exercise).
Flashforward to now: I have very few cravings, and am doing well. I've thought about adding back some fruit, a little at a time. But I can't. I'm scared to eat ANY carb-rich food. I'm afraid I'll binge, or go back to carb loading, or explode or something. When I am presented with those foods (an apple came with my meal today) I was actually SCARED. I ate it, to try and beat my fear, and the apple gave me a serious headache, and has made me terribly thirsty for the last 3 hours.
I have never been afraid of food before. It's an uncomfortable feeling. Am I crazy?
