The gist, grandma (and his high school wresting coach) knew it was carbs that were fattening and the diet plates were LC. I would point out that wrestlers employing various dietary schemes to make weight for competition are probably not a good advertising point for any diet. Meeting a number on the scale, or in the case of body builders looking ripped for competitions, is not necessarily equivalent to consuming a healthful diet (especially for the long term). Wrestlers are prevalent among the growing numbers of men with eating disorders.
