The amazing results of watching my carbs...

Hey Granny, have you noticed that @psychod787 's paws continue to impress with all the cinder-block lifting he has been doing?!?!? Just a random observation!

I still think a largish vanilla cone for about 300 Cal (yes, I know they advertise 147g and 230Cal, but then there's the reality of how much actually goes in one on average), beats half a Lindt chocolate bar... even though the Lindt bar has more fat... must be the protein in the vanilla cone, right?

<hmmm... maybe I should go get one... but drive through... and people...>



Oh, sorry, did someone say beans?

Well I'm glad to hear all this. I have what I feel like is keto PTSD (was keto for 3 and 1/2 years). Now that I'm trying to lose the 50 lbs that I put on during a year+ long free-for-all after I quit keto, there's still a lingering fear that maybe it's true that carbs make you fat etc.

I'm eating every food group. I can't handle to think about eating strictly low carb again. But like I said, still dealing with some residual carb fears in the back of my mind. I'm just counting calories. And I suspect I have blood sugar issues too. But the weight loss is slow. 1 pound in the last month after an initial very good month (I'm on month 2).

If this will help. I have seen high carb, whole food vegans lose tons of weight. Macros like 80/10/10
