You mentioned that the appetite increase isn't the day of your workout but the next day ... well I'm the same way. Its sort of like my muscles don't complain the day I work out but wait until the next day to let me know how they feel. I've noticed that my appetite does the same thing ... hungrier the day after.
Also, if you try to eliminate the bars and find that they are not part of the hunger problem you might want to think of upping your calories and/or fat a bit. You said that you've been increasing your activity ... your body may be telling you that it needs more calories. Sounds funny but if it needs more calories it won't let you loose that last bit of weight to goal.
I'm in OWL and I've upped my calories and carbs just this week and instead of 1 lb/week it looks like I'll have 2-3lbs loss by the end of this week. Of course you seem to know what your carb level is already. I'm still increasing mine to find my level.
Congratulations on being so close to goal. Good job!
