It's an old myth that you have to cut out carbs if you want to lose weight 👈 Here's why: 1. Changes in weight come down to energy balance.🔥 - you can cut back on carbs and fats to create an appropriate calorie deficit, without cutting out either completely. 2. Carbs are your most readily available fuel source for training. 🏋️ - if you're replacing carbs with a load of extra protein, the quality of your workouts are likely to suffer, thus diminishing the quality of your results. 3. Most of the rapid weight loss from cutting carbs is actually water 💦 - that's right, when you cut carbs and drop 5 pounds in a week, odds are most of it was just water. For every gram of glycogen (stored carbs) there's 3 grams of water attached to it. Burn through that glycogen, and you'll excrete the water that was bound to it! Magic is for Hogwarts, not diets 🧙‍♂️ More info at: www.avatarnutrition.com 

Haha 😂 

Replacing carbs with protein or fats reduces workout output diminishing your results if you lift. All I need to hear to see why low carb is detrimental for me. 

I used to eat low a carb breakfast before going to lift. Nothing fancy just eggs and egg whites, cheese and turkey sausage. I avoided carbs because of the extra calories. Then I added carbs on gym days for a boast in stamina and energy. It helped a lot. One slice of bread can make a huge difference. I have also learned that there is no shame in hitting the candy bowl at PF when needed...  

I can eat carbs?!? Since when?  

So, if I lift less I can eat less carbs. Got it. Or just walk more and eat less carbs. Got it better. 

I don't eat less carbs when I don't exercise. I reduce "calories", I don't even pay attention to my carbs and fats, I just focus on my proteins. For some reason I don't love my proteins as I do with my carbs and fats 🤔😅🐷 

Im finally where I need to be, says my nutritionist...good weight, healthly routines, and plenty of exercise! My carb intake is around 100 grams a day now. Wish my protien was that much! I still dont like meat but try hard to get in at least 75 gs of protien.. 

Honestly, If I track Protein, and just eat at a slight deficit, I seem to be fine. My Donut this AM was coal black chocolate devil's from Sheetz. Product placement coming later tonight. On my journal. After 7PM. before bedtime. 

Diana 100 grams and you are healthy omg who would have thought this was possible 😱 #balancediet 

@rosio19 I am very healthy.. I actually eat alot. Its what I eat that is different. I have 2 lunches everyday just to try n get my protien up. Lots of veggies and alittle fruit. I eat chicken almost everyday. Good thing its a protien I like. Lol. I enjoy your posts and feedback. 💜
