Food Tips of the Week
Losing weight
Drink more water. At times during a hectic day, you guess you are peckish but in truth you might only want a restorative glass of water or cranberry juice. The sensations of needing food and needing a drink are close, but one can result in a fat tummy and the alternative is ok.
Some low carb diet tips:
* Understand the food labels
Watch out for food labeling that boasts 'low carb' - check the real nutritional information on the reverse of the tin or packet. A good number of are only marginally less and in some instances still more than a competitors standard brand. Also, beware of 'low sugar' and 'low fat' labels - 'low sugar' does not always mean 'low carb' - often the carbs are identical.
* Replace sugar with a low carb substitute such as splenda.
Recipes that call for sugar can be modified to make use of a sugar replacement like splenda instead. It is much lighter so you will need to expirement with it and it might not be perfect for everything, but it does bake up nice once you have it cracked.
