Does anyone think that only calories from carbs can make you fat?

[QUOTE="Fleegle, post: 1592621, member: 402985"] I was reading another thread recently and it was all about the insulin index. Most interesting if a bit complex. I have made up my own hypothesis from reading this thread and that thread. It is complex I think. I am awaiting quick correction. Carbs do not make you fat - insulin does. Insulin is not only triggered by carbs. Mushrooms were my favourite example. So eating a very small amount of carbs apparently with the wrong types of other foods could give you a weight gain. But eating that same amount of carbs without those naughty mushrooms might not see a weight gain. Now was that the carbs or the mushrooms? My experience from eating 75g of carbs a day and very little else if that I am losing weight. Is it the carbs that are making me lose weight? [/QUOTE]
