carbs, the enemy within

Yesterday was a carb loaded day. I ate only high fiber, low fat things that are usually also high carb. Cereal and khichdi (rice + lentils). The thing is, by dinner I was so hungry that no amount of food seemed to satiate. It seems that no matter how much I might love the high carb lifestyle. It just wasn't meant for me. Even when I am off the atkins, I will have to limit carbs and be very careful about the ones I do chose to eat. On a high note, it's still high carb half day (I plan on going back to high protien this evening). Bananas for lunch, so happy...
