This is my favorite part of the article:
To me, it's more important to think less about how many carbs and proteins I'm eating today, and more important to concentrate on healthy sources of carbs, fats, and protein. If we do that, in general, we will get full long before we get fat. Remember, it's calories in versus calories out. Most whole foods are nutrient dense but relatively low in calories and also contain large amounts of fiber, which fills you up long before you've consumed too many calories.
It is so true. If we make sure that we are creating a balanced diet by eating a variety of foods then we don't really have to worry about carbs, protein or all of that. It will occur naturally and we will eat less because we are eating nutrient dense foods that have fiber.
