Science has the answer!
From later in the article,

...says Dr. Schmidt. “Instead of sugary soda, I can drink sparkling water with a lime in it.”

A lime has 7g of carbs, wedges are typically 1/8th of a lime therefore 1g is safe!
Seriously though, I think it's more psychological than physiological. Not totally one or the other but more the first. Dr. Schmidt doesn't think of a lime having carbs therefore for Dr. Schmidt having a lime wedge isn't a failure and doesn't make him feel as if he's failed. |
