Catb diets?

I've heard a lot of things that low carb eating ia great for losing weight for women but everything has lots of carbs! Any tips on low carb foods to try and get in the habit of eating more of?

Eating low carb won't make you lose weight if you're still eating more calories than you expend. You will have a greater weight loss initially because carbs help your body store glycogen and water. If you eat low carb you lose those stores quickly and drop an exciting amount of weight the first week or two (like 5-10lbs). But you won't LOOK like you lost that much weight. At all. Here's an interesting article that explains just one reason why carbs are important: http://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/the-antidepressant-diet/201008/serotonin-what-it-is-and-why-its-important-weight-loss


That being said, you should obviously do what you want. If you choose to eat low carb, so-be-it... I can't stop you. Just realize that you STILL need to eat a deficit of calories to lose weight no matter what your diet is. Eggs, vegetables, meats and nuts are kind of the basics in a low carb diet. Plan meals around those ingredients. Swap pasta for a huge pile of interesting vegetables or try spaghetti squash.

There are plenty of low carb foods to eat! Here's a good list to help you out

Just make sure your overall calories are lower than what you need for the day and you will lose weight...
Carbs are not the enemy.

On my workout days, I will consume over 300 gr of carbs......
