    I don't see where this is an issue. If you need carbs to feel full, by all means, eat them. If you're looking to lose weight, stay in a deficit, if you're looking to gain, stay in a surplus.

    Easy peasy :drinker:

    Nothing wrong with good complex carbs, and this is from someone who's eating low carb for the last two months :) Basically, the last time I lost a lot of weight, it was through eating good complex carbs, and exercising. I do find it easier to stick to the plan eating low carb this time, but as long as you find what works for you, that's all that matters :)

    Yep! I need complex carbs to feel full. A good mix of carbs, fat and protein is key for me.
