So, I've been on a keto diet for a week and I feel terrible yesterday for the first time I had major anxiety, nausea and chest pain on the bus. I am also feeling sadness and anger. Before I started this kind of diet I was pretty happy daily but I never thought that doing this diet would be so mentally taxing. It just kind of angers me how in the diet world keto diets are all the rage even my dietation suggested I don't eat carbs. Basically an hour session just to hear her trashing on carbs and it's like necessary for health. I just want to tell people that keto diet is like the last resort for me. I have tried traditional exercise and normal eating habits and it took me 6 months to lose ten kilos just for me to gain it all back. The only reason I'm doing this stupid diet is I'm so sick of my doctor going on my weight and like if I go to my doctor and say I lost like 2 kilos in two weeks and he tells me to lose more I'm going to be pretty upset. Like people talk about how great keto is for losing weight but it's a hardcore diet and should only be used as a last resort. There have been good changes among the bad I lost one kilo in a week even though I had a few slip ups. This whole thing just angers me because I want to feel loved despite my size and being told constantly I'm too big for this world is awful. It's just a lesson in self love and I honestly think the world should shut up about weight I'm beautiful regardless. I just know this weight isn't good for me but yeah my advice is this don't cut out carbs entirely. I didn't I still have 30 grams of carbs that's the only reason I haven't lost my temper yet but like these kind of diets are not a joke and should only be used as a last resort there not something that society should push on people. Also even more what's important is you love yourself regardless of what your weight is or how fast you're losing weight. It's easy it to get impatient that you're losing weight slowly but it's better than nothing. Also two kindness towards yourself is a must and treating yourself to the occasional snack isn't losing control it's respecting that you can have a treat every now and again. I will continue talking about my experience on keto and I will just try my best not to get to emotional about all of it. It just upset me because people treat people like us as if were fat because we eat McDonald everyday the only reason I gained that weight, was because of Olanzapine side effect. That caused twenty kilo weight gain in two months and nope the mental health people didn't believe it but it's true. So screw society's opinions on fat people and love yourself regardless I know I'm still beautiful and honestly I could of just changed doctor but I guess he's right that it does cause health problems.

I think the keto diet is too strict for me, and I've heard some dieticians say it can even be dangerous.

Also, olanzapine (Zyprexa) is notorious for weight gain. It is definitely a listed side effect, and I'm sorry your doctors didn't believe you and are giving you a hard time about your weight.

Personally, I am overweight, but I am still beautiful. I actually go to Overeaters Anonymous meetings, and they have been helping me with my eating habits and self esteem. There is this really great book called Body Image, Relationships, and Sexuality that I love.

I am actually planning to visit a nudist vacation spot for my 40th birthday this year. I will probably still be overweight, but I think it will be a great experience.
