ITT: Carbs are NOT the enemy (unless they are white carbs).
That's racist!0 -
My husband's doctor insists that people are fat because of carbs. He also says that calories in vs calories burned is not key to weight management. Funny how I lost 101 pounds watching how many calories I ate, exercising, and eating carbs. We get fat from eating too many calories. Moderation is the key to losing/maintaining weight and variety is the key to being satisfied and not binging IMHO.0

It's still calories in, calories out. What a low carb diet does is cut out a source of calorie dense foods. Keto, Atkins, and other low carb diets still work by reducing the number of calories you take in, but they do so in a way that still works to satisfy your appetite. If you eat a couple of slabs of bacon a day, you're still gonna gain weight and increase your risk of heart disease. Diabetes runs in my family, so I've made efforts to cut out "white" carbs by buying whole wheat breads, pasta, etc. Cutting calories has had the effect of also cutting carbs and increasing my fiber intake, but I still don't see carbs as the enemy.0
