Hello the thing is i have chickpea obsession haha! I've been planning my meals around chickpeas i love them and I'll eat them with anything, in salads with other vegs, baked....but im getting worried they might slow down my weight-loss? I love them because they fill me up so much and are 100 cal for 100g vs. rice and such which are 300's and for me thats success.. because i dont eat many starches when i have chickpeas but theyre high in carbs anyway so whats your advice? Ty xx

    As long as you have enough calories to spare, chick peas are fine!

    Thank you, yea calories are not a problem! I was worried about their carb content though? And they're low in fiber also... So idk if i should be eating them bc i put on weight pretty easily... x
