Hi all,
The good news is- I've lost a pound and don't feel bloated any more (haven't measured my waist yet).
To be fair to the person who persuaded me- he is extremely healthy and fit and obviously has no problem whatever metabolising carbs. Also he is from a macrobiotic background and so is speaking with expertise gained in his own field, not just received wisdom. That's why I listened- he had good arguments not just hearsay. Also, he was/is genuinely concerned.
However, he is coming from a place of excellent health, very high energy levels, no hint of fatique or depression or any of the other problems I experienced. His diet works for him.
I am convinced now though that I do have a problem metabolising carbs, my body obviously works differently and I'm glad I know that!
It's still a good lesson in physical self awareness, not just taking on board other people's regimes however well they might have worked for them.
Best to all
Alison
