Welcome chicachyna! I love this way of eating. I feel much better than on very low carb, plus, you can eat just about any whole foods if you keep the amounts small. Still no white-powder, drug-like processed food for me (flours and sweeteners), but definitely roots and fruit.

Also - unlike in the past, it is completely satisfying to have a small potato with a meal. It's because I can also have sufficient fat. In the past I could never be satisfied with small amounts of starch - had to have mass quantities - figured out later it was because I was also eating too much protein and way too little fat, you know, the basic lean meat deal. Insulin was always still darn high.

But, with the Lutz or Groves or Kwazniewski, it feels absolutely fabulous to have just a little starch with meals. That's how I do it anyway.
