 |  Carb Theory?
It seems like a lot of us are craving carbs lately....and being as how carbs are a major fuel source for us, is it that we are more active and working out that makes our bodies want the extra fuel?
Just a theory....what do you think Doc?
FYI...I blatantly left the Girl Scout cookies out on the counter....in plain site....they keep sticking their tongue out at bread....but I'm happy to report....I"M IGNORING BOTH OF THEM!!!

Kathy, I was just thinking the same thing this morning. I have found myself craving carbs this week. And what's funny, is they make me feel so sluggish and bad. I have been feeling down in the dumps lately because I have only lost 19 pounds in the last 2 months. I absolutely feel like crying!!!!!!!!!!!!!

don't cry....I'm only losing about 10 pounds a month....it slows WAY down...and I wonder if I'll get to goal...I lost 65 pounds the first 3 months...which means i've only lost 40 the last 3.....as long as we stick to the plan...we'll get there!!!
I don't know that I'm necessarily craving carbs...but I have felt SO hungry the last 2 days....the good thing? When I go to eat, I take 2 or 3 bites...and I'm full!!

Clancy, I know what you mean. I can honestly say that I don't think I have felt "true" hunger since I've had surgery.

Next month will be my 1yr. surgiversary and I'm happy to say I still have not felt hungary--I eat now only because I know I have to--but I do eat every few hours--little amts ---so it's tells me what I am eating is enough to keep my body fueled for the day. I do realize the hunger will come again, but I am not looking forward to that.

I am not looking forward to the hunger returning either Diane. I am hoping that by the time the hunger feeling does return, I will be able to keep my healthy eating habits and the emotions of hunger won't control me.

Good for you Kath! I don't know about carb cravings? I'm still more attracted to salt than to sweets -- I don't really want bread -- although I do have a tortilla from time to time. You are so CLOSE to goal! You are so good! I'm still stuck in first gear! You go girl!
