when I"ve totally limited carbs, two things have happened.

The bad thing is the total lack of energy. The good thing is breaking the craving for carbs.

Nowadays, I just try to limit carbs excpet when riding hard, then all bets are off. I find I tend to bloat up when I eat a lot of carbohydrate also. For me it's the snacking carbs that I have to force myself to avoid. I've been trying to stick with protien and fruit.
