I rarely eat bacon and steak and certainly eat less red meat than you and
I've been LCing for 3 years.

That is exactly what LC allows most people to do, eat less and lose weight.
Many people who eat diets high in carbs have BG swings that stimulate
appetite. Many of those people are very overweight and will stay that way
if the continue on a high carb diet.

Simple equations are all that folks with simple minds can handle. The real
world is often not so simple.
