Don't be afraid of carbs! They are yummy deliciousness!
Also, you don't have to lower your carbs to lose weight. When lowering carbs, you basically lower your calories bringing you back to a lowered calorie diet anyway.
some people do need to. have you ever heard of insulin resistance?...and it doesn't ALWAYS lower your calories. I know I am eating more calories while eating lower carb than I did when I was eating low calorie, yet I am still losing weight.0 -

Agreed. Before keto, I lost about 20 lbs just counting calories. But for me having that much freedom made me frustrated when I would eat a few pieces of bread or pasta with my meal, and I would be hungry just a few minutes later. It's like my body CRAVES sugar and starches.
Best diet option for me. I've broken my addiction to sugar and with the high fat, I'm hardly ever hungry! Good news when you're a boredom eater!0
