It's absurd to think you can eat all the meat and fat you want and still be healthy. Your body needs carbs, regardless of what others say about the low carb diets. No, potatoes and pasta aren't horribly bad foods! Fruits are good for you! All starches and sugary fruits should be eaten in moderation, that's all, just like everything else. For example, a baked potato w/lite sour cream and broccoli is a HEALTHY meal. A well-balanced diet is the best diet. Your body needs it all, fat, protein and CARBS.
Take care
