Found this article,quite interesting

What's your views?

its true to an extend and this whole article is sorta like "iifym" ...

my views on carbs ? well, i only count carbs from real carb sources like , oats,rice etc..
i dont count carbs from veggies, peanut butter and stuff like that.

i think you should have a balanced source of carb intake, like low gi , some high gi(fruit,dextrose etc) because it will just make you feel the best , you cant eat low gi food year round, neaither can u eat, high gi carbs year round

why not? do they magically disappear?

don't take this the wrong way, but sometimes your posts are a load of crap.

lol @ morning77, you don't really have a clue, do you?

Hey, thats what "I" do, not saying its right or wrong, or thats how it should be done, thats what ive doing and it makes stuff a whole lot easier, I count carbs as carbs , fats as fats, protein as protein ...so now? You gonna kill me for that or what

Just a question,why did morning77 get banned? What rules did he break?

I banned him, I told him I would if he kept making inflammatory comments. If he can't communicate with people properly he can just eat a ban every time.

Got no problem with the ban, do remember u warning him so all good

The author made some nice points

Unless you are just going on guesswork or following something simplistic like "Body-for-Life", it's fine. Otherwise if you are consciously tracking calories and your macro it's completely retarded. You'll never be able to do things like keto or accurately know what consumption is.

That I agree with. Difference sources for different reasons.
