To Carb or not to Carb is the question?

Thinking about cutting out Carbohydrates to loose weight? Well don't!!


Cutting out Carbs isn't the answer to loosing weight; it will mean that you will have to really solely on proteins, fruit and veg to fill you up and trust me that isn't as easy as it seems. This is also know as the Atkins diet!





Eating only proteins, will not only make your cranky, but also very gassy and will give you wind! Not a very nice feeling.

The best thing to do is cut down the amount of Carbs you eat, also time when you eat them.

Try to consume the most amount of Carbs in the morning, then decrease the amount as the day goes by.

Like the saying goes:

"Have Breakfast like a King, Lunch like a Prince and Dinner like a Pauper"

It is also about eating the right Carbs:
- Brown Rice
- Brown Pasta
- Whole meal bread
- Whole meal chapatis (You can use a mixture of wheat flour/Soya flour/Corn flour when you make chapattis)
- Porridge oats
- Potatoes (Starch Veg)

These have Complex carbohydrates, which keep you fuller for longer.

Remember Carbs are not your enemies, it is just about understanding and befriending them, plus eating them in the right quantities.
