Carb Phobia

I'm no longer very worried about keeping my carb intake that low anymore. It's become apparent to me that the human metabolism can handle quite a bit of carbs. More than I thought. Relatively speaking, the diet that I follow is low-carb compared to the SAD (Standard American Diet)but I no longer fear starchy foods.

Grains are still a big no in my book though. There's just too much nasty stuff in their that is bad for anyone. It's not the carbs or starch that's bad for you in grains, it's all the anti-nutrients they contain. Potatoes don't seem to be as bad when it comes to anti-nutrients so I think I'll have them once in a while. I'll probably reintroduce them when I don't want to lose anymore fat.
