Is wholeweat pasta less fattening?

[Russiawithlove]

Sorry if this is a thick question. Trying to low carb and I've bought some wholeweat pasta and rice as supposed to be healthier.
I've got PMT and am craving carbs. Will this be ok or is it still fattening?

The study that's often referenced about 'red meat' also included processed meats. Makes sense they might be harmful but seems wrong from a methodological POV to lump them together with raw and unprocessed meat.
