Advice on losing weightMake sure that you drink enough fluids.

The feelings of hunger and thirst are somewhat similar, but one of them ends in weight increase and the other one leads to no damage.
Some lower carb diet guidlines:
* Don't miss meals Most low carb recipes are, well...., low in carbohydrates. Your body must have energy, and carbohydrates are a highly efficient source of energy. A lower carbohydrate diet requires great care in monitoring you intake of energy, as any energy given by non-carbohydrate sources is slower acting.
* Know what is in your food Don't trust advertizing that boasts 'low carb' - check the real nutritional information on the back of the product. A good number of are only slightly reduced and in some cases still higher than a competitors normal brand. Also, beware of 'low sugar' and 'low fat' labels - 'low sugar' does not always mean 'low carb' - usually the carbs are the same.
