I am afraid to eat carbs as well. I am almost to the point of obsession. I hate the guilt I feel if I eat any carbs. Some days I may be lucky if I eat 10 g of carbs, and then other days (like today) I go overboard. Then, I end up hating myself the rest of the day.

I feel like I've gained all my weight back because I have IBS and bloat from the tiniest bit of carbs. The IBS is the reason I am on this diet. I was to the point that my stomach would bloat about 3 inches after every meal. I looked pregnant all the time and my jeans were always tight But, the PP diet has done miracles for my IBS. I just wish my will-power would be in control everyday. Sorry to rant....it's been a bad day. Hopefully tomorrow will be better!

P.S. I am also afraid of cigarettes!
