Without even going into the scientific principles that explain carbohydrates, low-carb weight loss can be achieved simply by reducing the amount of most of the things we eat. I am referring to one thing you may have noticed once: the USDA advised that eating six pieces of bread is the average recommended daily value.
This is a ridiculous amount of bread for most people to eat. We have scientists running around in awe at the overwhelming amount of obesity in this country, and these same scientists are the ones who advise eating all that bread! So, long story short, it doesn’t take a medical degree to see that if you want to achieve low-carb weight loss, eat less bread! It is that simple!
We know that reducing portions is a workable solution, not just with bread but with other carbohydrates. Low-carb weight loss will be promoted simply by avoiding refined and processed foods. Reducing or even eliminating as much sugar as possible is another major clue. Mind you, just not picking up that candy bar is very simple. Convincing yourself not to pick it up is the difficulty with most ‘sugar freaks’. It’s too convenient for a meal on the run. The majority I have inhaled, I have done so without even standing still.
Here again, we can use the simple principle of moderation in reducing portions to have our candy and eat it too. Refrain from depriving yourself every time you have a craving.
Instead, eat a small piece of candy, but remember to buy them that way. What will stop you from eating several small amounts if you believe in a bag? More scientific facts are in order here:
Several small pieces of candy are equal in diet damage to a whole candy bar and riskier since the entire bag may be equal to far more than a couple of candy bars!
It’s the same thing for cookies. Only buy a bag of cookies to lose weight or keep a healthy weight. Buy a little package of cookies, but since they usually have six, even throwing half away may be necessary. Don’t want to waste? Leave it on a skinny person’s desk or the table in the coffee room at your office.
Can you stand another one? The slice can purchase even cake, and you can eat just half. Accidentally, on purpose, you can knock the rest on the floor. One bite is all you need to experience the wonder. Like the frosting and not the cake or vice versa? Throw the other half OUT!
As we know all too well, baked goods and sweets are the biggest offenders. The reason is that several factors make them the antithesis of the low-carb weight loss diet plan. They contain massive amounts of sugar, processed and refined flour, and sometimes saturated fatty cream.
Plug your ears and say “steamed asparagus” while I mention how much I love things like these little goodies, obviously invented by the devil. Recollect the adage, ‘You are what you eat,’ and never forget it also shows. Chocolate frosted cream puffs are to be eaten (half) and not worn, but you will!
