II forgot out this thread for a bit, but I love these responses. Especially coming from some blogs claiming bread and sugar are basically poison and extolling the benefits of anp carb-free, sugar-free diet...

Yeah, I can't atop eating carbs. Even on my "healthy" eating days I still eat things like whole grain pasta and wraps/bread. And the usual alternative is meat... I wanted to go vegetarian/flexitarian for reasons...is there nothing safe to eat? Carbs kill your brain d make you unhealthy, meat is bad for the environment, sugar is poison, soy makes thyroid problems worse, and I don't trust a plant-only diet to not leave me constantly hungry and/or broke...some days I wonder if I should just let myself starve to death. The pressure isn't worth it.
