Bigmid, to answer your question about SBD...
SBD is great, especially if you have problems with cheating. There are lots of options and you can do it out to eat easily and you don't feel like you are being deprived. Especially if you can cook (or have time to cook). If you don't have time to cook, you do need to enjoy having salads or low-carb tortilla wraps.
For me, I have taken a break from the kitchen. I make my husband do it all.
LoL.
It's my "AA" way of saying "I don't want to touch the food, food is not special, it's just for energy." I have prepped/cooked now and then...maybe 2-3 special meals a month. I think this summer I will slowly get back into it (once the garden starts churning, we'll have a lot of mostly-veggie foods). Hubby makes sure I stay on plan and there is nothing "bad" in the house. I make sure I am on plan outside (well, mostly). I am gone 3 days a week for school. I eat a lot of subway or Starbucks (egg sandwiches) or yogurts or something.
I also am taking a medication that severely curbs my appetite (this is a side effect of the med, and not the intent of the med) which I started in August. I am one of the lucky people who gets this side effect, and although it has a lot of icky side effects, I am riding the icky ones as long as I can trying to take advantage of this one (the pharm info calls it "anorexia", it literally makes me feel full all the time, and some food taste bad sometimes. It doesn't make skinny people feel fat, although I have some body dysmorphia anyway just from losing weight and being used to being the fattest person in the room).
So, because of the med, I realized I was not getting enough calories on SBD, so I've switched from SBD to "Weeb's version of SBD that has more carbs in it that is calorie counting to make sure she gets 1200 calories or more every day" So I order a subway footlong turkey with cheese and lots of veggies and a pack of apples, but often eat it through the day, and try to eat a few other things.
Wow, that felt like therapy.
If anyone gets migraines or epilepsy I can tell you offline about the med.
