I just commented on what I know about his diet and I agree that I don't know everything about it. I guess my point would be that an overweight problem usually involves excess calorie consumption in relation to a person's activity level. Those with a very high activity level, like athletes, can consume more starchy carbs without having a weight problem. But most people are in the moderate category and need to watch carbs carefully.

Anyway, if you're looking for a weight gain culprit, where do you look? You look at foods that are calorie dense like fats and carbs and these should be measured for that reason. The only thing I know of that can be eaten in unlimited amounts is non-starchy vegetables. Not looking for an argument, just trying to put things in a better perspective.
