    Blood Sugars with only Diet?

    Make sure your almond milk is unsweetened, spelt, buckwheat, rye all are fairly high carb. Buckwheat for example has 71.5 grams of carbs per 100grams of flour.

My personal goal is 10 grams of carbs per day and 2000 calories and only eat three times in any two day period. When you befriend fat the cravings and hunger...
