Wait, carbs aren't the enemy?

Monday night's nutrition class was so interesting to me.  I feel like I have been in a "diet" mentality for so long.  In the past, I had tried low carb diets and they worked for awhile.  I lost weight and I lost it fast.  But it was never a lifestyle I could maintain and eventually, I just reverted back to my old ways.  I never felt good or energetic while doing those diets.  Mostly, I felt tired and grumpy.  Now, we are learning more of a lifestyle change and how important every food group is for our bodies.  And this time around, I am losing weight and I actually feel good doing it.  Who knew?  I just think it is just going to be a great learning process and I hope that this is something I can continue on for the rest of my life in a healthy and balanced way.
