Eating fewer carbs leads to faster weight loss.

When people consume fewer carbs their body begins to burn excess fats as an energy source instead of glucose.

A diet that filled with processed carbs causes our bodies to use glucose as an energy source.

[1]
The sugar your body usually burns is glucose, which is produced from carbs (bread, processed sugar, pasta, potatoes, juices, soda, and sugary drinks) you drink or eat.

Any extra glucose is either stored in your liver or muscles as glycogen or converted to fat.

When you lower your carb intake, your insulin levels drop, Your metabolism will eventually shift into fat-burning mode.

Eating foods that are healthy (unprocessed carbs, fats, and protein) will help control your appetite and reach your weight goal faster.
