    Carbs and Energy ? ? ?

    Just sat with a friend of mine who lost over 60lbs of fat in 6mths by ELIMINATING Carbohydrates (potatoes, bread, rice, all starches) from his diet. He ate all forms of meat...and vegs...but no potatoes, bread, rice or starches....just protein and fat (of course there is some carbs in the vegs...but not much).

    ..and get this...he did it without EXERCISE!

    He's a computer geek and by no means a BB or fitness buff...but he's smart as shit and an all around good guy.

    He says it was carbohydrate addiction that keep him fat...now he's slimmed down to 160 at 5.5". He's now at the gym and picking up weights just prior to turning 40yrs old.

    QUESTION
    "How long do carbohydrates AVAILABLE to provide energy for a workout (or whatever). Ex. If i eat a Banana, how long is that available for energy before its stored as Fat?

    your constructive input is greatly appreciated...
