[quote=Anonymous]I make amazing sourdough bread, and about 2 months ago my husband and I started an Atkins style ketogenic diet. We are eating about 20 grams of "net" carbohydrates per day. I am not missing my (formerly) beloved bread at all. Read up on Atkins or other low carb high fat diets. You can't really predict what foods you will crave when you dramatically change your diet. I've lost 10 lbs and feel great. The 20 grams of carbs eaten in a day have to be saved mostly for green veggies, so the diet is eggs, meats, fish, non starchy veggies, high fat dairy, and small amounts of low carb fruits, like raspberries. The key to making a low carb diet work is to eat lots of fat. As to the issue of being hypothyroid, that might be something to check in with your doctor about. [/quote]
