How come you guys are eating so much carbs?? They are on 'THE FORBIDDEN" list for me- Everytime I am tempted to have some bread or Pasta I can hear my surgeon going " NO BREAD, RICE, PASTA, or POTATOES","You're NOT EATING THESE, Right?" :-)

Because he's probably misinformed, like most doctors nowadays. A lot of people like to think that carbs are what make us fat, when in the end what makes people fat is taking in an excessive amount of calories and not exercising. Eating over your maintenance calorie limit + no exercise = fat gain, not carbs.

Unless you have a tight band that can't tolerate rice or pasta, there is truly no need to not eat carbs, unless you are insulin resistant. If you aren't..eat them in moderation.
