    I wish there weren't so many carbs in pasta. Its one of my favorite foods. But, its one thing I am going to limit and greatly reduce the serving size when I do consume it. Id much rather get my carbs from more natural foods such as fruits and veggies.

    None. I don't care about carbs. Carbs don't make you fat. :wink:

    Carbs did indeed make me fat. It is the reason why all the other diets I tried my whole life never worked very well.

    To this day, I stick to less than 100 carbs a day. Mostly from Veggies :)

    Nope. Carbs didn't make you fat. The quantity of the food you ate made you fat.

    That's not what Gary Taubes said!


    Lol - obviously.

    I don't watch carbs as closely as others on this site, but I do wish sugar had no carbs... real sugar, from a sugar cane... I love sugar!!

    Ummm... I lift. I need my carbs. If there was a food that I could eat as much as I want of and not get fat I'd go with pizza or cake. I can't do moderation because I'm a serious food addict so it's like telling an alcoholic to just have one beer. Although, I do feel much better since I cut out certain foods.

    There is really nothing I can think of, after doing low carb for years I have found delicious alternatives to every type of meal I can think of.

    Sweets: Low Carb Cheesecake Bites, different varieties like pumpkin, pecan, etc.
    Pizza: Meatza or cauliflower crust pizza.
    Mashed Potatos: Mashed Cauliflower, BETTER in my opinion than potato.
    Buns/breads: Oopsie rolls, almond flour buns, minute flax seed muffins
    Alcohol: Any hard liquor, diet soda/ginger ale/tonic.
    Potato Chips: Pork Rinds
    Spaghetti: Baked spaghetti squashed, tossed in butter and garlic in a pan.
    Lasagna: Egg Plant & Cheese casserole or crock pot pizza
    Pancakes: Cream cheese pancakes
    Tacos: Taco salads of course.
    Chicken Parm: Breaded with parmesan or pork rinds, stuffed with ricotta, sauce & mozarella.
    Buffalo Wings: Buffalo Wings ;)

    And plenty of others. I just don't crave or miss sugary foods. But that tends to be the case when you are no longer chemically addicted to the stuff.

    Actually, 80% and up chocolate is quite healthy and can fit into a diet very easily with moderation. I have a square of lindt 85% here and there and I keep under 20g net carbs per day. Of course, it's an acquired taste after 80%, but I have noticed it became much sweeter after many months away from sugar and its effects on my taste.

    Odd question. Do the calories and blood glucose rush disappear as well? If so, I think I'd have to go with plain ol' sugar. Just about everything else I eat that is high in carbs contains fiber and my body needs that too much to give up. Plus, sugar tastes GOOD.

    If we pretend carbs are terrible for you, sugar, for sure. However, I am a huge fan of not cutting carbs out. Now, if you wanted to talk about "which foods do you wish had less sodium" I could give you a list.. =|

    Moosetracks Ice cream ( already so for the no sugar added but it still has carbs) I watch calories (want less of) and protein (want more of) ; not carbs.
