Hi Scarlet:

Yes, protein can be converted to glucose. It's discussed in most of the low carb books, but there is also a thread here that discussed it.

However, I've never heard of the 30 g/meal limit. Not sure if it is right or wrong, but it is certainly interesting. I'm looking through my fitday journal and realizing that meals that caused "false hunger" involved larger amounts of meat. I assumed it was my carb intake coupled with not enough fat. I'm going to play around with these numbers and see how it affects me.

Stay tuned....
