Just wondering how those of you who have completely given up sugar or drastically cut it out. How this has effected your over all mood? 

I’m so snappy, have a short fuse, so irritable, feel sluggish. I’ve been to see my GP who said NO carry on with ur normal diet don’t make any changes your weight is low anyways. She’s recommended I take antidepressants. Is anyone else on antidepressants?

    When I was first going through the the process of figuring out what my issues where being brought on by (this was July August), I cut out all carbs and sugar. Wasn’t diagnosed with LS until October and the diet made me lose weight but I can honestly say it did not help me one bit with my LS. The only change I made to my diet. LS is making sure to drink enough water.

      Hi hun, I’m just trying anything which will prevent it from spreading and glaring up, tingling feeling. I’m not 💯 sure what’s helping what’s not. Gp doesn’t have a clue as I go see her regularly. She keeps telling me keep the stress down eat a healthy balanced diet & don’t cut sugar out. Stuck me on the scales regaularly. I don’t want to loose weight am only 46/47 kg. 

      Have you carried on with your normal diet before LS ? Including sugAr etc ? And how is your LS small part? Had it spread? Thanks.
