Need to feed myself more carbs in the day and I'm struggling cuz I don't really enjoy eating carby things.. I've got weetabix for breakfast, bread at lunch, and potatoes at dinner.. but I need some carbs in my 3 daily snacks, not fruit though!!!

Thanks :)

    Popcorn, rye crackers, dark chocolate, dry-roasted chick peas/edamame, raw veggies like carrots celery bell peppers etc, rice cakes...why no fruit? That is the easiest one and most versatile :smile:

    How about bean dip, bean salad, corn or peas. All of them have carbs just not the ones you think of right away.

    No fruit cuz wayyyy too sugary :( only fruit I eat is berries as they're lowest in sugar and high in anti-oxidants.. tryin to spice up my diet a little with some different snacks and realised that my carb level is perhaps too low :\ at the mo in my snack I'm havin rivita with peanut butter, greek yoghurt, berries, dark choc..

    No such thing as carb levels according to the FDA. Some doctors say no more than 100 grams, others 75, still others 175.
