I am doing the Hellers' CAD diet too, but I'm modifying it to add the farinetta muffin recipe I've posted here. I know there are more carbs in the muffins than allowed, but since they are full of things that help my insulin metabolism, and for muffins are very low in carbs and high in fiber, I figure it balances or even improves things. They are the only carbs I allow myself other than during my reward meal. And it sure makes breakfast simple.
BTW, I am losing weight and just had a 34-day cycle! Last time I did this my cycles regulated right out and I even had a 28-day cycle (first time ever, I think!)
