We don't get overly concerned with the calories, at least I don't, on FTS.
I don't either, and maybe I should say 'portion control' rather than calories, since that seems to be taken the wrong way here. For ME, the fact is, if I eat too much of anything, even if I have 0 carbs, I won't [url=http://www.fattoskinny.com/]lose weight[/url]. That's just how it works for both me and my husband. FTS is working for us, so I honestly believe it's a combination of the two. ...
That is exactly right and how F2S works for us all, Rena!
Limiting carbs AND portion control are part of the F2S lifestyle.
Within reason, calories are not a consideration.
If we eat too many carbs, we will get fatter.
If we eat more than we need or when we're not hungry, we will get fatter.
Too much of anything (even something good) is not good for anyone.
I suggest that you reread Doug's book.
I have read it many times. And each time, something new jumps out at me.
