Fats digest slower than carbs -- so if you're going to consume a higher-carb meal you want to add fats to mitigate the effects of the carbs. I'm not familiar with Sugar Busters, so I'm not much help there. But I know that Atkins will NOT work if you do not consume enough fats. If your problem is sugar/carb cravings, this is particularly important because eating carbs will just make you want to eat more carbs and more and more....

So the answer is YES, increase the fats when you increase the carbs. Use butter or a fatty sauce on your veggies. Heck, they taste better that way anyhow!!
