Traveler,
You hit it on the head, I believe. All things, especially carbs, in moderation.

Hmmm. I never really gave the topic much thought but will simply add that I have learned to listen to my cravings. Almost invariably, if I crave fruit I am getting sick, if I have a tummy ache I sometimes crave bananas. As Zen as it sounds it really is true at least for me. And I'm not very Zen. That growling little tiger under my rib cage is almost never wrong, and when I go astray it usually means I wasn't listening to it carefully.

Thanks Keith for coming back with the thread.
