    On a calorific deficit, how does the 'white stuff' impact your weight loss differently than complex carbs?

    I'm only guessing, but I think the complex carbs take longer to digest and don't spike your insulin. Also, they keep you full longer, I think.

    But I supposed I am still confused as how that impacts weight loss directly.

    Well the first thing that comes to mind is if you feel full for a longer period of time, you would eat less.

    That is an indirect impact - not a direct impact.
