Remember the food pyramid? Many of us followed it in our 20s. It was wrong and we paid the price for it.
Subway diets only work if you get the flat bread and veggies only no sauces. But that was not told in the commercials and people like me got meat and mayonnaise at Subway, Quizono's etc.
Now I am counting carbs, fats, trans fats, sugar, sodium, etc.
Sugar free food might have carbs or sodium in it. You need to read the nutritional panel and see what it has.
If I knew this 20 years ago, I wouldn't have gotten fat.
- to1y 5y agoSurely quantity had something to do with it.
- timbit42 5y agoYes, but the higher percentage carbs are in your diet, the more often you get hungry, the more you eat each day, and the more weight you gain. If you avoid carbs, you will eat more proteins and fats, which keep you satiated longer, reducing how often you feel hungry, leading to eating less each day, reducing weight gain. Intermittent fasting helps your body use up your fat stores, helping weight loss.
