I would think not -- too many carbs -- would be used as energy over fat, and
with the insulin it provokes, not only would the fat be stored, but lipolysis
would be inhibited. The salad veggies and other low starch veggies are
probably fine in moderation, but I would nix the fruit for this experiment.
