Questioning the Wisdom of Low Carb Modified Foods If you are following a low carb diet and you think eating "low carb" versions of things like pancakes and bread is smart, think again. You'll gain weight as soon as you add real carbs (water weight mostly), any carbs, and you will be paying high prices for unhealthy food in the bargain. Instead eat whole foods such as whole baked potatoes, fresh carrots, salads, vegetable soups, bean dishes. Eat the real thing! Stay away from the modified versions whether low fat, low carb, or low anything. Low carb means added artifical sweeteners and who knows what to stretch the fiber, low fat usually means added sugar, low calorie is usually crappy tasting. Why pay extra for this trickery? If you want to lose weight and keep that weight off a few things must happen. Your diet must include healthier foods in greater quantity than unhealthy foods. I'm not talking "good" or "bad" foods. Any food is fine, in moderation. The trick is moderation. I love cake but I don't eat it every day. I love all kinds of sweets but I don't over indulge every day. If I did I'd gain weight, and it really is that simple. I choose to stay in shape by eating the goodies when I want, but my desire is infrequent because I want even more to maintain my size. What does eating pancakes do for me? It makes me want syrup, and maybe something sweet later that day. It sets me up for craving sugary sweet foods. That may not be what I really want, especially if I'm trying to lose a few pounds. What about bread? Wouldn't I be better off eating the low carb bread? No. Choose a healthy, whole grain bread. The low carb brands are not whole grain, they are white flour, with added corn starch and artificial sweeteners. They reduce the size of the loaf, and slice the pieces teeny tiny then claim, "Only 4 Net Carbs per Slice" or something equally ridiculous. Check the loaf. Is a sandwich made with teensy sized pieces of bread going to satisfy you or is it going to make you want another sandwich? Eat the real thing, and you'll feel satisfied from having eaten an adult sized sandwich, and you won't feel deprived or crave for more. ~~ Kathryn Martyn, Master NLP Practitioner, EFT counselor, Weight Loss Coach and owner of http://www.OneMoreBite-WeightLoss.com is the author of "Changing Beliefs, Your First Step to Permanent Weight Loss."

Good Fat Diet or How to Choose the Best Foods for Your Family?
Some fats are good for you. Your body can't function without them. Those fats help you to absorb nutrients. You can even have a fat-intake deficiency, when you are not getting enough of them. Your skin will get dry and your hair will get brittle. Other fats can be also bad for you. They increase the level of cholesterol in your blood, which clogs your arteries and can lead to a heart attack. Those fats also have a natural tendency to be easily transformed into a body fat, which tends to blow...Read more
The 'No White Foods' Diet
There are many diet plans out there today, and the striking thing about a lot of them is how complex they are. Gone are the days of just counting calories. Today’s diet plans come complete with a theory, a philosophy, a comprehensive diet plan, and exercise plan, and, more than likely, products that you can buy. In a way, that’s a good thing – it means that the theories behind these diets have been well thought out, and that the diets themselves are likely to promote good health as well as...Read more
The Raw Foods Diet for Health and Weight Loss
Though it will probably never become a mainstream way of eating, there are those who swear by the raw foods diet. Not only will this diet help you lose weight, but it is also supposed to be healthier than any other way of eating. The concept is simple, though it may not be so easy to follow. Because proponents of the raw foods diet believe that nutrients are destroyed when food is cooked, they eat all or most of their food in its raw state, or as close to raw as it can be. Needless to say,...Read more
The Top Ten Nourishing Foods For Dieters
When you are on a calorie restricted diet, it is more important then ever to choose foods that are as jam packed with as many nutritional elements as possible. This is particularly true if you are taking Hoodia. Hoodia supplementation can reduce your caloric intake as much as 1000 calories a day. This means you need to avoid eating empty calories from foods that lack vitamins and nutrients and stick to foods that give you the most maximum value in terms of nutrition. Here is a list of the...Read more
