Anyway, thanks for your answers.



You should read some low carb books to truly understand low-carb and how it works.
The low fat concept has been so ingrained in us since the 70s that it's hard to shake and ignore calories and stop being afraid of fat because the body has to run and when you remove those insidious carbs which turn into sugar once in your body, your body will convert and begin running on fat, both your own and what you consume.
You might want to read an older Atkins book written by him and it will explain the mechanism of how low-carb works.
Atkins warned not to go low-fat and low-carb at the same time because you will become malnourished.
