I don't know, in my experience the quickest body fat loss happens when you cut out fruit as well, saving it and starchier vegetables like sweet potatoes solely for post workout.
Of course, "quickest" is relative. What I mean is I get maybe an extra 2-5%, as opposed to the 95-98% that comes simply from going Paleo, controlling caloric intake, and having a good workout program. The difference exists, but is not worth it to my sanity.
If you are above 8-9% body fat, I wouldn't even worry about it provided you aren't eating like fifteen bananas a day.
Thanks for posting this. Something new I learned today is that sweet potatoes are really not that different with the regular potato
everyone is different, I got down to my leanest point ever with fruit as my main carb source. I was also eating oatmeal with my first meal of the day everyday. For me it seems that the type of training I am doing dictates my fat loss, even more so than diet. But even when I'm heavier on carbs it's still oatmeal and fruit.
