Good Morning. Carbs are evil let us count the ways

1-Carbs are addictive. You have a little and you want more and more.
2-Carbs give me rumbly guts. I guess they turn to sugar and provide my gut bacteria a smorgasbord, which in turn gives them gas, which gives me gas.

How can that be when I love them and they love ME so much???? I've always thought they were my friend....
3. Simple carbs, especially tortilla chips, puts my Reactive Hypoglycemia into high gear.
4. I get "sluggish" if I have a carb meal for lunch - get tired, etc.

2. Easy to add extra fat to (butter, mayo on bread, cream sauce on noodles, butter sour cream on potatoes) which most of us don't need.
3. Fake new pouches out because the slide in so easily, usually causing no issues.

I have noticed that even if I have only a potato chip or two I seem to get a tiny amount of gas a few minutes after. I really don't think it's a coincidence. I try and avoid gas at nearly all costs, so this will help me stay the path.
I'll do my best to be good and I appreciate this post MajorMom. Thank you.

Yes, they are oh so addictive it is a daily struggle between the carbs and the sweets.

I asked Vitalady about it a few years ago and she said fruit is full of sugar and sugar makes us gain weight. She said when she gained she was eating fruit all day long but she had to start limiting it. At that time I asked her, she said she still eats fruit but not as much as she wants.
