Re: do your meals rely on carbs?
I don't think you rely too heavily on carbs.
I haven't read the other thread/post, but I gather that the poster's dh is probably eating a LOT of those starchy carbs and not much of the other stuff(protein and veggies). Yes, that would pack on the pounds.
I do know that the year or so that I was no-grain, no-beans, and no-lots of other foods, I lost a lot of weight to begin with and stayed there (around 125) as long as I kept to the 'diet'. Once I started adding the grains back in, I started gaining it back(and am now around 135-140). I'm seriously thinking of cutting way back on the carbs again. I felt better off of them(though I admit to craving them).
