    Hey, bread as well as any other food group is not the enemy. This type of mindset can lead to an unhealthy relationship to foods. Its essentially calories in and calories out, however keep in mind certain macronutrient ratios will improve satiety throughout the day.

    ha ha. I said I wasn't getting into it. LCHF has believers and non-believers. The non-believers are a ferocious bunch that has to have it their way. As a serial dieter, who's been losing and gaining weight for 40 years, I can tell you LCHF has cured some medical stuff for me. It's 100 times more enjoyable and sustainable, for me than high carb, low fat, restricted calorie. If that's what you like, wonderful for you. Many of the other diets I've used required limiting bread. Or you ate crap like 1 egg white on a piece of dry toast. Restricted calorie diets restrict bread. A medical diet like Medifast, no bread. The first diet I ever did 40 years ago, no bread. Atkins, no bread. Keto, no bread. Weight watchers, some bread. But I bet it would have to be low fat, low taste, low carb to be low in points. I wouldn't know about weight watchers.

    There were lots of replies by people who do not do low carb that were far ferocious. The same statement can be made about people who follow low carb and insist that their method is superior. As I stated and many others have stated, there's no one right way. You only look at the overly negative posts, you should consider reading all the replies.
