I'll jump on this band wagon. I agree carbs are not the enemy. Just try to eat get most of them from complex sources like whole grains, fruits and vegetables. Try to keep your maco-nutrient balance of Carbs/Protein/Fat to apprx. 40/30/30 and keep your calories in check and you will lose weight and be healthy.
