Default Can a low-carb diet fail if you take in too many calories?

I still don't get this whole "fat makes you feel full" theory. It sure
doesn't for me. Protein, on the other hand, does make me feel full. I
could eat 1000 calories worth of cheese and butter a whole lot easier than
1000 calories worth of lean chicken. Fat just makes things taste better,
imo, which makes me less likely to want to cheat on the diet than when I
was on low-fat.


Fat's not supposed to make you feel full, it's supposed to prolong the
feeling that you had a meal, and don't need to eat again yet.
