[QUOTE="JohnH2019, post: 2178031, member: 503734"] Just like I mentioned to the original poster tpower, have you been tested to rule out exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI)? One reason why you may still feel hungry is if you are not properly breaking down your food into nutrients. Another idea is that you are just not eating enough calories. I remember when I started the whole primal lifestyle (life saver!) I initially did not eat enough healthy fat and calories. Have you tried adding more healthy fat for dinner (avocado, seeds, nuts, hard cheese, etc.). It helped me with satiety. Alcohol, and any liquid calories I cut out completely to help my pancreas. Are you really at <20 grams of carbs a day, as that is extremely low? Two glasses of wine is half that already. A list of books that helped me: [URL]https://www.diabetes.co.uk/forum/posts/2111414/[/URL] A few videos that helped me: [URL]https://blog.virtahealth.com/dr-stephen-phinney-ketosis-ketogenic-diets/[/URL] [/QUOTE]
