Agreed.
But for someone who is trying to cut off 60 lbs...eating too many carbs...carbs from pastries...such things...which people call the bad carbs...very quickly transfers into fat.
My theory is simple. Quit eating junk food...quit drinking pop, juice, soda, beer...any alcohol except wine....and stay away from white bread...basically your pastries. The pounds can't fall off fast enough.
Of course...exercise does wonders as well.
