    Ack! Don't replace whole wheat pasta for white!! Eat the whole wheat pasta to be healthier... You are WAY better off eating clean food or healthier food! If you are that worried about it, maybe cut down your portion size a little.

    This is exactly why there are weight problems, because people chose the wrong foods..... :(

    don't worry so much about macronutrient ratios... really... don't obsess. some days you'll go over on protein or carbs or sodium or whatever... just try to stay balanced. eat healthy, seasonally if you can... just use common sense and don't give too too much thought to nutrient ratios unless you're way off balance to the point of absurdity. eat well and there's a good chance you'll be more balanced.

    The thing I find to be most helpful is sitting down and measuring the nutrients in a meal prior to plating/consuming. Planning everything a day in advance seems to form too rigid of a schedule. This leads to a mean case of the "blahs"...No cheat days here...If you're really looking to keep weight off, it's a lifestyle change...
