Dieting tips
In deciding on a meal plan, it is essential to also make sure you cut down your ingestion of refined carbohydrate, fat and salt.
Some low carbohydrate diet tips:
* Don't ignore the fiber
Reducing the carbohydrates in your diet usually results in reduction in fiber as well. Look at reduced carbohydrate recipes that are high in fiber to redress this.
* Use reduced carb chocolate bars for chocolate muffins.
If you have converted your best loved chocolate chip cookie or muffins recipe using soya flour, you don’t want to add in those high carbohydrate 'real' chocolate. Break up a low carbohydrate bar of chocolate into little pieces and use that in its place.
