It's one thing to say low carb but really it's low "bad" carbs are
what you really want to do. Don't forget about the good carbs. That's
what you are going to eat to fill you like lettuce, green beans,
broccoli. All your green vegetables are wonderful for you and they
are really carbohydrates! It's the starch you need you be concerned
about. Years ago, it was thought that you should eat bread before more
fatty foods which is absolutely the wrong thing to do.You will never
be full without carbs, the good ones and they are practically no
calories to fill you. Don't you agree?

Given that you virtually quoted from every low carb book out
there after your first sentence what's the point of agreeing or
disagreeing? It's not about saying low carb or not. It's about
following the directions in the book. You wrote your message
like you haven't read any of the standards in the field.

Yup. I never got the point of that. I tried it and discovered
it was nonsense.

Utterly false. Have you ever even eaten a steak?

Straight from every popular low carb book.

Fat fills you faster and last longer too!

Fat keeps you from gorging on more calories than you need as well, so the
end result is you eat less calories than if you were on a high carb way of
life.
