S&S bars......

Deezer do you ever feel that this diet makes you feel depressed?? I've felt really low this past week, I think it's all in my head as I use food to cheer myself up and always feel happy when eating my favourite things, felt really low this morning and when I did the grocery shop I caved in and had a binge..... :-( I so don't want to do it tho, I'm going to be back to S&S packs tomorrow and I think il may just eat S&S pack without a protein meal for a while to keep me on the straight and narrow. Ultimately it's my weight that gets me down and I know that when I'm slimmer il feel happier, so need to keep plodding along......why is it so hard for some of us??

There is a post further down about depression on VLCDs. Be worth a read

I dont think the diet makes me depressed But i rthink my realisation of my dependance on food did......

I've had my moments but they were more 'around' the diet....

Like I used to feel depressed that I'd let myself get so big.... like I'd let myself down.....

Definately depressed after a binge..... I tink for me the diet brings a certain amount of security.... of control and i think thats why its worked for me.....

The weight loss has lifted my depression dramatically and i dont think anyone who has never been overweight will ever realise how desperately awfull you can feel.....

This is what worries me about maintenence.... will I feel out of control and down.... but I must admit the buzz I get from exercise now I think will keep me on the straight and narrow.......

I agree, since I have done this diet, I have felt not only in control of my weight but have felt focused on my life more and have clear visions, where before my weight made me so depressed I didnt care about anything and was thoroughly miserable. I do have to say though there were times throughout my weight loss journey that I did feel depressed. I put this down to being in and out of ketosis when I did have blips.
