Lisa,

I doubt that it's just you, just as it's not me that finds I do better with and in fact need more carbs. Part of the reason I made this post is because it took a lot of people here a long time to discover that what worked better for them was controlled, rather than low carb - I guess we are a bit more low profile than the Atkiners, and tend to hang out in the Swartzbein, Sommersizing or other forums and mainly exchange our ideas in journals. Posting this was REALLY meant to help some people who might be trying to keep their carbs lower than is good for their own individual system. I was in no way trying to bash low carb - why else would I have been here for a year, I love it here, I just want to remind people that one plan is not the answer for everyone.
