Quote, Paraphase, and Citation #1

"Well, the answer is simple, and it's nothing new. No matter what you've heard about net carbs and impact carbs, weight loss boils down one thing: Calories in versus calories out."

In this quote Kathleen is saying that Calories are the enemy when fighting obesity. You can't lose weight if you comsume too many calories or do not burn off the calories you take in. Carbohydrates do play a part in obesity, but calories determine your overall weight. If you try and lose weight and is not succesful do not balme carbs; a persons's calorie intake determines if a person is going to lose the weight or not.When it comes to obesity, carbohydrates and fat grams play a part, but calories play a bigger role, according to Kathleeen.
