I hear this all the time. And honestly… carbs aren’t the problem.
What usually is:
-starting the day with barely any protein (and yes, 2 eggs is NOT high protein)
-eating too little during the week and much, much more on weekends
-avoiding carbs but overdoing fats like oils, nuts, cheese, butter, and avocado
-living in a constant state of stress with very little daily movement
-chasing resets instead of building consistency
Carbs don’t make you gain weight. Poor protein intake, inconsistent calories, lack of strength training, high stress, and low daily movement do. If your goal is to get lean, you don’t need to cut carbs. Potatoes and bananas are not the enemy.
