[QUOTE="AndBreathe, post: 551893, member: 88961"] I'm not great on lots of fat either, so although I reduced my carbs to around 100g a day, I couldn't sustain the full cream, mega cheese fest. In the end, when I was hungry or plain old just needed to eat more, I added nuts (which I only just tolerate), as a simple way of dosing in some calories. I also slightly upped my protein, although it metabolises to some sugar, so is cautionary, and with a larger plate full, I could take a little more fat. It's all trial and error, and perhaps switching from your "old" diet to LCHF could be moderated a little, or even done in stages, to give your system a change to adjust to the different things it's having to digest. What sort of carb levels were you eating before, and what are you targeting now? [/QUOTE]
