    Hello, I've been low-carbing for 6 months ago after being a complete carb junkie and a total slave to my ever-deviating blood sugar.

    I wouldn't eat any other way now.

    I'll always be what I call 'adequate carb' ...

    More intense activity = More good sources of low-impact carbs (i.e. not the refined stuff)
    More sitting around = Not much carbohydrate at all

    I'd give it at least a couple of weeks to really break the carb craving. :)
