    I think she means that you should eat more complex carbohydrates then simple carbohydrates. Means

    Don´t eat white sugar, white flour

    Eat: Vegetables, whole grain, beans, yams etc etc..

    The fact is when you eat simple carbs they will spike your insulin level and you will get as fast hungry as you don´t want. 8-) If you eat complex carbs they will not only taste fantastic but also will get your insulin level a bit higher and you will not feel hungry again (just as we all knows what happens when you go on a multi billion dollar industry - eat something - and after 30 minutes you have hunger again).

    Also it is helpful when you eat complex carbs with proteins. They will also slow down the absorption.

    Cheers

    Thanks so much to everyone who gave me suggestions... there are a lot of good ones out there! I will do a lot of what has been suggested and talk to my doctor as well about swimming, I wish I had thought of it, it's a really good idea!! And I will eat more nutrition dense calories to fit into my 1200. Honestly, I had no idea it was 80% eating and 20% workout. Now I don't feel so defeated, but rather encouraged. I really appreciate everyone's comments!! :smile:

    all exercise does really is define the body and build endurance and strenght, at least in my eyes.

    Yeah and that is kind of important
