This info seems a little misleading to me. Notice both articles refrence "Weight Loss" not FAT LOSS, that is a big problem right off the bat. I agree that total cals will be a larger factor then types of carbs that are consumed, but when your talking about fat loss, it is very important to keep blood glucose levels stable. This is very hard to do with the inclusion of only high GI carbs in your diet.

I dont think either of you will disagree that low GI carbs have many more health benifits then do high GI carbs. And it is very easy to misconstrue the info that is in this article. I personally wont be trading in my oatmeal for a snickers anytime soon, and I would hope those who read this understand that this isnt exactly evidence of anything.

Hell, I could go on an all sugar diet and lose 40lbs in the next month, doesnt mean its healthy, or that I will have any muscle mass left at the end of it.
