:blushing: ok, I have never been a fan of fruits and veggies, so I guess I need to branch out. I find plenty sugary and unhealthy carbs like Pringles, which I love! Any advice on where to find the good carbs. I am blushing because I am 53 yrs old and I should know this!!

    good carbs are basicially anything that is a whole food and has not been through a processing procedure in a factory

    so stuff like fruit and veg is good carbs

    white bread, white pasta, cakes, etc. bad carbs

    whole grains i would say are ok but there will be people who argue against that

    Wheat pasta, brown rice, potatoes, sweet potatoes (YUMMY!!!!), popcorn (not the nasty microwave stuff), oatmeal, and the list goes on. Enjoy!
