Vegan • Carbs • Diet • "Should I eat carbs if I'm trying to loose weight "

So it's 2:30 am - I woke up 30 mins ago to feed Opeie, started thinking and now I can't get back to sleep ! 

When I wake up in the night I always end up googling recipes , and catching up with a few of my friends food blogs, which Is bad for two reasons - one, I never remember what I've read in the morning after , and two, I always end up so hungry ! ( like now. ) 

I've been thinking about our 'relationship' with carbs for a few months now, that people are scared of the carbs in their food, that people don't eat meals with carbs when trying to loose weight , that celebs in the media talk about having minimal or zero carbs to stay skinny, and then diets like the Atkins . 

Guess what ? It's rubbish. ! I eat loads of carbs ! Carbs are in everything pretty much anyway , from raspberries to chickpeas, to gluten free bread to normal pasta! It's how you use them how it matters , as a fuel source to give you energy ! 


( yes, nuts are "high" in carbs - but also protein, good fats & oils ) 

When people say " I don't have carbs" I find it hard to believe as pretty much everything has carbs on one level of another , you can have a clean carb diet which is better for you ( minimal processed carbs, And less starchy carbs ) but its really about balance ! 

A clean carb diet is just that, carbs from an original source , but I personally believe that some gluten free items should be eaten without fear too , since gluten is one of the main fear factors in carbs - it's the thing that ( can ) make you sluggish , tired, achey, run down , and ultimately have a reaction to such as bloating , and other nasty digestive problems . 

So if you're trying to loose weight or be healthier , don't skip on the carbs , your body really needs them ! You'll have way more energy if you eat them regularly too, I try to eat every 2 hours , which boosts your metabolism . Have a balance within p

Enjoy your food, don't get swept along in the media flurry of food hate.

  5. Revisar este modelo en particular en acero con bisel de cerámica y esfera de "efecto de carbono" es solo un vistazo al trabajo más amplio de la variedad Big Bang.replicas iwc Este es uno de los diseños originales, si no el diseño original de Big Bang 44, por eso quería cubrirlo, si es que hay algo para ver qué tan bien ha envejecido. Irónicamente, este reloj una vez masivo que se veía lleno de detalles visuales replicas hublot ahora se considera relativamente conservador en comparación con mucho de lo que ha sucedido desde entonces, incluso del propio Hublot.
