    No food MAKE you fat. You can eat carbs just fine. They are not evil.

    Too many calories make you fat.

    Ditto.

    Enough with the "carbs are evil" campaign that is annoyingly rampant on these boards. Some people are carb sensitive, some aren't. Like everything with nutrition, it is personal. I get it, cutting carbs works for some. Newsflash: your lifestyle doesn't work for everyone.

    I eat bagels, bacon and eggs, and I'm getting less fat all the time. :smile:

    I eat 300 + g of carbs a day. All low carb is is a calorie restriction that singles out a particular macro nutrient.

    But some foods are more easily turned into fat by the body than others. Sugar/bread/starches are more easily converted to fat than proteins.

    If people are carb sensitive I suggest they only eat carbs in the morning for lunch and just have a protein and vegetables in the evening =). That works for me.
