What do you think of Low carb?

I often check out a forum for bodyweight exercises because I do a lot of bodyweight exercises as part of my dry land training. Anyway, many people on that board are all into this low carb stuff. I tried it out for 6 months but had the feeling that I don't have enough energy if I don't eat enough complex carbs like grains(pasta, rice, bread etc). Is it just me or do other swimmers experience the same? Just wondering...

    I want all the natural fat and all the calories I can find! I don't mean McDonalds -- I want my foods whole, natural, and un-processed. I don't consume anything that is "low-fat", "low-carb", "decaf", etc. Just give me the real stuff! Hear hear! :applaud: Real food all the way! Well, except for the decaf... after age 50 I'm more sensitive to caffeine... and don't seem to burn as many calories doing the same amounts of exercise as I used to... :cane:
