I just watched a video series on sugar addiction on dietdoctor.com. It's a paid subscription service, but so far well worth the nominal fee. It talks about carb/sugar addiction as an addictive disease for some of us. I was so moved to hear it spoken of so frankly. I know that I'm a carb addict and that eating keto is more than a diet for me, it is a therapeutic treatment for my disease. A disease that nearly killed me. It's not a fad diet! It is saving my life, my mental well-being and my physical health. Carb - cycling is not an option for me. Maybe someday my metabolism will be healed, but for now I have to be very wary of being sucked back into addictive behavior and eating. Watch the series, if you think you might also be an addict. It nearly brought me to tears to hear it so clearly laid out as a disease, just like opiod addiction, alcohol or nicotine. It's hard to kick it , and once keto adapted, that clean state needs to be preciously guarded. For me, obesity is an outward symptom of my illness.
