if you cut carbs, you can have fats and fatty meats. if you don't cut carbs, you have to watch the fats.

correct. the body does a poor job of managing carbs and fats at the same time (I may be supporting paleo here indirectly ). Basically, if you take in a large portion of carbs and fats at the same time, a larger portion of those fats will be stored than if you ate the same amounts but separated them by a few hours.
