I don't think that's strange at all.  Not only do my natural "hunger"
mechanisms work wonderfully when I'm eating lowcarb, but it also
regulates the desire for fat quite amazingly.  I can sit down with a nice
fatty steak, and start eating and enjoying it with the fat, but at some
point, my "taste," for the fat disappears, and I continue to eat only the
lean part until my hunger is satisfied.  (just to clarify, I normally eat
a near-paleo, lowcarb diet...   I'm not yet prepared to give up coffee,
tea, artificial sweeteners, occasional bits of dairy, and a few other
nasty products of technology...  but I do BELIEVE that I'd be better off
if I did...  maybe I'll get there someday...)

Remember that Sheryl is concentrating more on lowcarb than on paleo
(which CAN be much higher in carbs for those who can tolerate it).  MOST
of the participants in the lowcarb groups I participate in are women.
General knowledge in those forums is that men do tend to lose faster and
more easily than women, and that women are more likely to need to add
exercise to their routines to start or maintain loss.  But women are also
represent some of the most astounding and inspiring success stories.
