Also, I can't seem to sign in to the feedblitz and get the newsletters. Can you help me with that? When I eat steak for breakfast I have much more energy and a better day. I'm trying to get off the carb bandwagon. Thanks for all the great podcasts. <i>I post every single menu I've eaten since December 2007 at <a href=http://lowcarbmenus.blogspot.com rel="nofollow">my menus blog</a>, Bev, but I'm not sure what you are referring to with the feedblitz and newsletter stuff.

Too many of us eat when we're not hungry - healthy things or not - there has to be a whole body, mind, spirit approach to following a healthy diet, imo.

One of the key things that I noticed in going low carb was the initial change in feeling of fullness. The high carb full really felt uncomfortable and "bloaty" . The low carb feeling of fullness was actually hard to get used to because it was so different and in the first few weeks, I thought that I was still hungry until I realized that it was just different. A low carb full is a feeling of having had enough to eat but without any discomfort and is not accompanied by a rush of exhaustion. Not to mention that one stays full and satisfied much longer. Of course this isn't anything that you don't already know :) Jimmy, another great post !!

Since I began replacing processed foods and processed carbs with whole foods (very few of them grain-based), I find I am much more satisfied after a smaller meal. A salad of greens, goat cheese, fresh fresh fresh veggies, maybe a little cold salmon thrown on top, homemade oil and vinegar dressing, and a small glass of raw milk - and I can go ALL DAY and not run out of steam. When I consistently eat the "Weston A Price" way, the pounds ease off on their own without my even noticing, and my food satisfaction levels and energy levels are way up. I can only attribute it to higher fat and nutrient density. I have to wonder if satisfaction has to do with the nutrient density of food.
