It's the carbs bruh

I think we'll live to see the final demise of the CICO (calories in, calories out) model of weight gain/loss. The body is a complex physiological system, not some simplified Newtonian machine. It's the carbs, and it has always been the carbs. If you quit for a while and feel low, just imagine what a crack addict feels like in withdrawal. It's so gross really when you can get outside of it and see it for what it is. Juicing. Getting puffy. Riding that inflammation to an early demise.
I love carbs. I like the energy they give me for exercise. But you have to manage your relationship with them. They are the root of the problem. You'll never know that until you quit and adapt to living without them.

Vegetables are carbs.

I agree with this. 2000 calories worth of Twinkies has a lot different impact on a human body than 2,000 calories of ribeye steak.
I know LSU 777 will probably disagree, and that guy is smart as s*** about human physiology, but I just disagree him with him on the calorie in calorie out thing.

Calories in calories out is somewhat of a limiting concept because we can only really guess how many calories we really are burning on a given day. That said, it still must be understood and accounted for.
The main reason things like carnivore work so well is that it is truly limiting. Its hard to gorge yourself in excess calories when you are just consuming protein and fat. Its also limiting in that I cant just go get bacon and eggs in a vending machine.
I can also go out and for pretty cheap, house a 2000 calorie meal that is carb heavy just out in the town or traveling. Cant do that with protein and fat.
Its the lifestyle and behavior modification in addition to the limiting of inflammation promoting foods etc that builds a healthy body

Fructose is not the problem. Processed sugar and carbs are the problem.

Gain weight eat more calories than you burn.
Lose weight burn more calories than you eat.
This is fact. You can complicate it as much as you want but this is fact.

I am surprised at the number of downvotes on the OP. I expect to see that on the OT board, but not here. Dude is offering logical information from his own experience and research.
Unfortunately this is one of those "against the grain" situations. If you know, you know.
If you have tried the carnivore diet, seriously and faithfully, you know for a fact the it'll clear up all kinds of chronic issues.
The carnivore diet is tough. No carbs is tough. I do the carnivore/no carbs diet periodically and the results are simply impressive. Always.
Anecdotal, maybe, but my personal experience:
Completely off blood pressure meds (after 10 years daily RX)
Fall asleep quickly, sleep soundly and wake up refreshed EVERY DAY.
Completely cleared up dry skin/eczema I had dealt with for years.
And very surprisingly, my tinnitus I've had since I was in my 20 cleared up completely.
