Eat burgers without the bun. Avoid bread. Carbs from vegetables and fruit are good. You have to eat a plate full of vegetables (lots of food) to get the same amount of carbohydrates in a couple slices of bread. Just finished watching a movie called 'Fat Head'. The movie is a little silly but the info is good and in line with what Bill has been proposing all along the way. Check it out given a chance :) Drop grains from your diet - like pizza.

We must remember that everyone is different though and some will be able to tolerate higher levels of fruit than others. I would also argue that veggies and fruits are only better in the sense that they are much less carb dense. Let's face it, nobody would even want to try to eat the amount of broccoli required to equal the carb content of a few pieces of pizza. Not to mention, the fiber load would mess you up pretty significantly ;) Keep eating your fruits and veggies in sensible quantities and you'll be good to go! Noah -

Are you saying my broccoli/peppers/apples/pineapple within zone parameters is no longer good enough? Or are you saying, cheat carbs like pizza, burgers, buns, bread, grains are going to keep me fat? What about good carbs versus bad carbs?

Are you saying my broccoli/peppers/apples/pineapple within zone parameters is no longer good enough?

Or are you saying, cheat carbs like pizza, burgers, buns, bread, grains are going to keep me fat?

Lazy is what makes you fat, not insulin. Get off your can and you won't get fat eating carbs. Lazy is what makes you fat, not insulin.
