[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thanks everyone.  Helpful ideas.  I don't fear fat, and I've tried very low carb, but it didn't feel right (it also didn't help my eventual overeating - if anything it made it worse).  But I do think pushing my carbs to later in the day might help.  Even cutting my morning toast down to half a slice.

I'm pretty good about water, but I could be better.  And I know from my fitbit that I could use better sleep.  I'm going to try focusing on both of those, because my afternoon cravings do really seem to coincide with an energy slump that could be do to chronic fatigue/dehydration...[/quote]

OP again.  I also tried a CGM for a couple months, and it was interesting.  My blood sugar was way more stable on the days I avoided most carbs, but I didn't feel good or that I was eating in a sustainable way.  So I'm hoping to find a way to keep some carbs in without big swings.  Probably the most disappointing thing I found was that oatmeal and most other cereals caused huge spikes and crashes.  I just love oatmeal.  Sigh.[/quote]
