More on my visit with Carol: We've been trying to find a way to help stop my late night binging. Carol suspects that I am perhaps having a blood sugar level crash. So, as an experiment we have added a single "string cheese" (1oz of cheese) right at bedtime. Tried it the first time last night, and the cravings seemed less. Of course it could be a placebo affect. I will continue with the experiment for a few days.
During my visit yesterday, I was able to show Carol this site. I think she liked it. I hope she lets her other clients know about it. It would be good to have more people using it.
Last night was another variation on the bread recipe. Not so successful this time. I reduced the while flour to 1/4 cup. The result was a partially risen loaf. So I think I have found the sweet spot at 1/2 cup.
Update: While entering the recipe below, I started thinking that I had only put in 3/4 cup of whole wheat flour. So...I'm going to try again tomorrow.
Update 2: I was right about the missing flour. I have upated the recipe to reflect the real values.
