[QUOTE="Blackhawk, post: 254286, member: 16042"] I am on a current somewhat tenuous rebound from leukemia, in deep enough remission that things are improving for now. I had a terrible time for the better part of 3 years trying to maintain body weight due to the cancer itself, anemia, transfusional iron overload, and nutrient malabsorption due to microcolitis/chronic diarrhea from the cancer drug. Digestion is better now and I am closer (140lb) to my normal body weight of 145lb. My HbA1C is a little high now. I would like to reduce carb intake , but I NEED TO GAIN MORE MUSCLE WEIGHT! I have just reached the point in recovery that I have actually started resistance training. I have tried several other times in the last 3 1/2 years only to be knocked down by other complications. The current carb culprits in my diet are white and sweet potatoes, plantains, beans, rice (White and brown), blue, black and straw berries, carrots, some garbanzo flour in a low(er) carb pancake mix I make. I have hard time with high fat meals, they stay in my stomach for many hours. Any thoughts, anecdote, and links to appropriate resources would appreciated. [/QUOTE]
