I'm not sure you are getting this. Maybe it's the way you worded that sentence. I'm not sure.

You Want:
  • Natural Simple Carbohydrates (found in fruits and vegetables)
  • Natural Complex Carbohydrates (but only what you get in fruit and vegetables)

You Do NOT Want:
  • Other Complex Carbohydrates (except after a workout; found in breads, pastas, and grains)
  • Artificial Simple Carbohydrates (found in processed foods and sugars)

With that said you are allowed a couple cheat meals a week without it effecting you noticeably.
