Food Tips of the Week
Losing weightRather than thinking about which food types you really should leave out of your meal plan, focus on the nutritionally sound foods that you are able to introduce to your meal plan. If you manage to inject some nourishing grains and vegetables into your daily routine, you'll soon see that stop feeling hungry and have a significantl;y decreased risk of giving in to those damaging midday snacks.
Some lower carbohydrate diet guidlines:
* Use splenda instead of sugar. Recipes that call for sugar can be changed to make use of splenda instead. It doesn't weigh the same so you will have to experiment a little and it might not be perfect for everything, but it does bake up nice in most cases.
* Use low carbohydrate chocolate bars for chocolate muffins. If you have taken the time to convert your best loved chocolate chip cookie or chocolate muffins recipe using soya flour, you dont want to add in those high carb chocolate chips. Break up a low carb chocolate bar into tiny chunks and use that in its place.
