Wow, glad I found you!

I've posted this elsewhere, but I felt AWFUL on a high carb vegetarian diet, no matter how "healthy" it was. One irony was that on a high carb veggie diet I suffered symptoms of depression, the irony being that I keep reading a low carb diet will deplete your serotonin and make you depressed, but for me the opposite is true!

I also had too many blood sugar fluctuations that made me binge on "healthy" carbs. High carbing left me exhausted as well.

I know some folks swear by high carb (although I can't find them anymore!), but for me Pritikin, McDougall, etc. just didn't work. Oh, and this is not to bash anyone, being a Vegan made me VERY sick, but I realize there are vegans out there who feel great! So we just have to find our own way I guess. But you're not alone! Gimme' a stick of string cheese over a baked yam any day!
