Does anyone else feel sick to their stomach at the end of the day if they go over their carbs? The past two nights I went over them and I've been nursing a tummy ache. I don't eat gluten so I staying under my goal is not a problem for the most part, but when I do, I feel like crap.

    I'm going to venture a guess that it's in your head unless a good deal of those carbs are fiber and you're not accustomed to the amount that you're getting.

    I actually have the reverse problem. If I undereat carbs, I tend to feel lightheaded and nauseous.

    I don't feel sick, but I do notice a huge increase in major cravings and a serious desire to binge on carb-y foods when I eat more than about 75-100 g of carbs a day. Carbs just make me want more carbs :/
