Lots of people seem to believe that carbs are what make people fat, after following the 80/10/10 diet and losing 3 stone I can see past all this crap about carbs being bad.
The 80/10/10 diet is one where you get 80% of calories from carbs and 10% from fat and protein. This diet is vegan so may not be for everybody but its principal is one everyone can follow eat less fat and replace it with carbs.
The low carb made me wonder why countries like Thailand aren't obese where rice is the staple of the diet.
Are people honestly going to say that it was pasta and rice that made them fat and not the fatty animal products like bacon or burgers (again okay as a treat).
Carbs also get blamed for example foods like chips when infact the fat in chips is what makes you fat.
So those of you on a high fat low carb diet should really look at this diet because it was one I could stick to and not a fad diet like the Atkins.
