However, I'm like Galina, if I should eat too many carbs I tend to end up with a bad headache - it's as though my body is now treating those carbs as poison.<br /><br />All the best JanLowcarb team memberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07961199165290289611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19636934974176166.post-67099338961429503002013-12-16T05:56:43.253-08:002013-12-16T05:56:43.253-08:00I don't have an extreme appetite after eating ...I don't have an extreme appetite after eating carbs any longer,just discomfort and the fat deposits increase.

I don't do well with upstream hormones, since I tend to go more towards testosterone. It has been awhile since I have tried them, maybe now things will work better with more consistent mag and iodine supplementation.Exceptionally Brashhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13177479330600606059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19636934974176166.post-61057168032747658622013-12-15T18:01:57.535-08:002013-12-15T18:01:57.535-08:00i've noticed a difference in Wooo's experi...i've noticed a difference in Wooo's experience to mine.... i never observed the extreme discomfort and raised appetite that she and Sidereal seem to, during the luteal phase. as far as i can understand, the hormonal derangement that caused them to become obese in childhood may be reflected in their experience.<br /><br />that said, when i tried progesterone creme, i found that wherever i applied it, fat deposits increased, but i didn't notice any other significant phenomena -- just a diminution of hot-flashes. significantly, though, i now associate hot-flashes with histamine load ... which IS estrogen-influenced! nowadays, i prefer to use pregnenolone instead of downstream hormones, and my body seems to convert and partition it in "intelligent" ways. :-)tesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04254045589639201707noreply@blogger.com
