I never knew carbs made you fat! Do they?
Reply from Jen, Age 16 - 07/19/01 Carbs don't make you fat! in fact, they should make up a good portion of your diet everyday. the reason for people thinking that carbs make you fat is that if you eat more calories from carbohydrates than you can burn off, the rest is stored as energy (aka fat) for later. NEVER remove carbs from your diet. those high protein diets are unhealthy and short term.
Reply from kristy, Age 16 - 07/10/01 NEVER cut carbs from your diet. its true that eating to much carbs,such as twinkies,white bread,and donuts are very fattening. stay away from that stuff and instead of eating white bread eat whole wheat...it REALLY helps. basically,my point is eat a reasonable amount and try whole wheat. plain and simple. hope i helped!
