Hi - Seems like I have no problem getting the protein I need - sometimes more than I need but at the end of the day I haven't consumed enough carbs. What foods have carbs but not proteins?

    Not sure about the protein but I don't think it is very high. Bread, potatoes, noodles, fruit. Also, most junk food has lots of carbs.

    I think getting plenty of carbs is usually not that critical unless you are doing some pretty serious exercise. If you are feeling fine at the level you are eating then I wouldn't feel pressured to eat more.

    Lots of sugary things, however there really is no minimum daily intake for carbs, so I wouldn't be overly worried about being "under" in carbs

    Only go low carb if youre not doing anything. Youre body needs carbs to fuel and burn fats.

    Michael- Be a carnivore. All meat is High pro/low carb
