Not all carbs are made the same. But generally your body was never built to consume pure carbs. Our bodies are built on fats.

Drinking a can of coke when you're hungry and seeing yourself gets more hungry. Eat 2 avocados and you can probably skip the next meal.

Yeah, that's my point. Take some pasta with tuna and you have a meal that

  1. Consistently supplies energy for the next hours
  2. Satiates you with high quality protein

Banger meal for when I need to be out and chop wood all day

It wasn't build to consume pure fats either. A healthy mix of complex carbs, protein and fats release energy over a long period of time and satiate the stomach. Cutting sugar, sweeteners and fatty snacks does a lot to fix addictive food behaviour, but it's hard.

Fun fact, all your body fat you want to get rid of has to leave through your breath.
