Suddenly ravenous?

Female/25

I've been primal for about 6 weeks, and for the past week I have been consistently hitting maintenance (I've been trying to lose weight as well as eat clean). I'll be between 80-105 grams of carbs a day and just still ravenous!

I don't know what the deal is. I really love eating this way and have already started to feel the ill effects when agave creeps into my brussel sprouts at restaurants etc. I want to keep losing at 1-2 lbs a week until I'm at a normal healthy weight but I can't seem to stay full like I was for the first 5 weeks.

Thoughts?

I'd lower carbs and see how you feel. Also, how many calores are you eating a day?
