Hi and welcome!
Carbs are good and necessary... for weight loss, focus on calories while eating a balanced diet.
Whole grains and fruits/veggies are all carbs, but they are primarily complex carbohydrates with lots of good vitamins and minerals, so you definitely want to eat a good amount of those.
The simple carbs you want to avoid are any refined sugars, white breads, high-fructose corn syrup, etc.0 -
thanks for the advice!0
