Stop saying this. It's filling your arteries with plaque. If you cut out most fat and eat high amount of unrefined carbs, you will also lose weight. But it has the added benefit of not pumping your circulatory system full of sludge.

you can eat "as much as you want" as long as you are cutting carbs is because your body is in burn mode because it's deprived of energy. It's bad for you in the long term. Why anyone think they can eat as many handfuls of cheddar cheese as the want and have no consequences is deceived.

Source for this? In my opinion this is outdated thinking and new studies have shown the opposite.

Your answer made me go read into fat metabolism, to see if your claim of "pumping your circulatory system full of sludge" was true, and I found this was the specific biochemical assembly that carries metabolized triglycerides through the blood stream. Enjoy:
