  • Don't know about the insulin factor, but my dietician recommended it for me to add a starch to a meal. It's pretty neutral as far as flavoring and texture go, but I never played around with it that much. Oh, I love your name, btw!

  • I wasn't in the beginning and I was losing more, but I am exercising much longer, harder, and more frequently now, so I do tend to eat back the calories. I am also within 10lbs of my goal and it is getting much harder to lose weight. I'm hungrier now than I was when I started! Sometimes I'm also guilty of exercising to…
