    Carbs aren’t evil but if you don’t want to be overweight you have to eat carbs in moderation. It’s not that hard gang.

      I like to go to the bakery down the street and buy a loaf, then just eat the whole thing while it’s still fresh. I’m a scrawny little spitfuck.

      What a load of bullshit. Tell that to the Italians, where they eat ridiculous amounts of pasta, pizza and baked goods a and have the lowest obesity rates in Europe.

      Food quality + more walking + meat in moderation.

      Isn’t Low Carb debunked? As long as you eat halfway clean and at a deficit, you lose weight. And you don’t gain weight by eating a lot of carbs, as long as you don’t have a caloric surplus.

        Weight loss is literally calories in vs calories out. That’s it. Carbs generally have way more calories than foods without carbs. Low carb definitely works for weight loss, so I don’t know if I’d call that debunked.

        It’s really simple. But these fad diet cultures we get sucked into have made us all crazy it feels like.

          Any restrictive diet can lead to weight loss, because you’re not allowed to eat the stuff you wanna eat, so you don’t eat as much.

          If there’s nothing special about carbs (and I don’t think there is…) that’s what I’d call “debunked.”

        and at a deficit, you

        Well that’s the thing, carbs are just very calorie dense so eating cards makes it harder to eat at a deficit.

        Isn’t Low Carb debunked?

        What does this even mean? Nobody that I know of has ever asserted that low carb diets are the only way to lose weight. Low carb diets tend to reduce appetite which helps in achieving a calorie deficit, that’s all .

      You got it all wrong, you just have to work out a lot and then eat all the carbs you want
