The only time you really "need" carbs is before and after a workout, any other time and they're optional. I like to eat them at a few meals normally and even eat 1/4C rice almost right before bed. Others like to limit them only to when they're absolutely necessary - it's a personal choice for comfort.

What matters is the deficit.

Hi
I told you before that you should eat oil to every meal but I forgot tell you that you should reduce carbo.Carbo change quickly into fat but healthy oil do not change.In the first week you will be a little weak but later you body will start absorb fat and start change into energy.

Soy protein is good if you want lose weight because speed up your metabolism and stimulate your thyroid.Soy protein has also poor amino acid composition and low absorption.

I do not know you type of blood but if you have 0 you should avoid oats and eat spelt or rye flakes.Your body digest it better.

Soy doesn't speed up your metabolism! It competes with your thyroid for iodine - soy's a goitrogen. It interferes with thyroid function.

You can get fat as hell overeating healthy fat. You can get fat as hell overeating damned near anything.

Regarding blood type - while I'm not a fan of grain in general, I'm fairly sure there's more to food intolerance than blood type.
