some things to know about carbs
Carbohydrates are the main energy source for the body, and they're the main source of calories in virtually every diet worldwide. They supply 4 calories per gram, the same as protein. Fat has more than twice as many calories (9 per gram)—one reason for its bad reputation. Fiber, however, has no calories, because it isn't absorbed by the body.
so breads and potatoes and other filling foods contain carbs.

"naomijessicalove" is on the target... but only half way. She listed the carbs that most peole would label as "good carbs"... the ones that give you quick energy. Sugar is also a carbohydrate... it is not bad in moderation but if you eat too much sugar and don't burn it off right away, it will turn into fat.
