This can be what happens when our pancreas is used to responding to food with big gobs of insulin. When it doesn't find as much blood sugar as it is expecting, blood sugar can drop too low, and a "hunger alarm" is triggered.

Also, people with thyroid problems often report doing well with somewhat higher levels of carbs.

If you can bump them up without messing yourself up, lowering them again, gradually, might address the problem.
