Espi, that's a lot of great information. Thank you so much.
I'm wary of going into ketosis because my doctor specifically advised against it for me.
However, after doing a lot of thinking about it over the past few days I have decided to reexamine my diet and reduce my carbs to about 95-125 a day. That is still a considerable reduction with what I'm eating right now (about 180-210), but still managable, I think, and I hope will help with my cravings and constant hunger.

I have the recent issue of women's health which has an excerpt from Cassandra's "Perfect Body Diet" which advises that the "carb-sensitive" diet should have about 95-125 g of carbs a day.

When I have a chance later I will post my day's menu.

ps. Espi, just about drooled with envy reading about your bike trip! I'd so love to do that.
