Lumping fresh fruit with Fruit Loops is the problem, part of the deceiving dribble like "All Things in Moderation", and "There is No Such Thing as a Bad Food". Decades of dieting has proven this is a pack of lies. Moderation? One cookie turns into a bag of cookies in a matter of hours. A half cup of ice cream turns into a half gallon in an evening. Food addiction is a fact, not a cartoon. When you eat food that leaves you empty of nutrients, you stay hungry and keep on eating. Cooked fruit, fruit drinks, peeled potatoes, white flour - bread, pasta and so on is BAD, not neutral, it is DAMAGING carbs. (see Sugar)
It is not will power, it is chemistry. Quality carbs, such as raw fruit and whole grains, are vital to feeling and being well. No one is too fat from eating too much Real Food.
Low carb diets make a dent in weight loss for many when all else failed because you quit eating crummy carbs AND YOU QUIT EATING PROTEIN & CARBS AT THE SAME TIME. Protein is digested with acids, carbs by alkalis, the two at the same time work against each other and you.
Eat meat, eat potatoes, in the same day, just not at the same meal. You get food that is easier to digest, a fuel you can use, no heartburn and you feel alert instead of exhausted.
