fat is not bad.
and unless you have a medical condition that necessitates it, there is no reason to be low carb diet.0 -

Nope I go over it most days. As long as you keep your carbs to the minimum and don't go over your calories, it wont affect your weight loss.

I heard some rumblings that the low-fat fad diets of the 80s and 90s back-fired. Because the fat reduction often resulted in simple carbohydrates being added, many folks gained weight as fats kept you feeling fuller than the higher carb alternatives. I find low fat items aren't as satisfying. For me, full fat is the way to go as long as you're still watching your portions and tracking calories accordingly.0
