Vegetables ARE carbs. But unlike starchy carbs that put your blood sugar through the roof, you can load up on fibrous veggie carbs that give you ultimate satiety for minimal calories. Yes, 300 grams is recommended for just one person and you can eat much more than that if you want to. Consider them your secret weapon to losing fat without ever feeling hungry.
