Hi All,
This past week in the issue of Woman's World is an article about med. carb dieting...The Schwarbein Diet. I started it this past week and I am so excited because it is working great for me. I've tried the traditional low carb diets in the past and just couldn't do them. What's different about this one is that it allows for small amounts of fruit, whole grain lite bread, etc. It says that if you're 30 lbs overweight to eat 15 grams at meals (3x day) and 7 grams carbs at snacks (2x day) well, I'm losing and it's working. I feel like I need that amount of carbs, the other way is just too little and I get really weird feeling.
So, if you're like me, it's worth a try. I feel really great and feel like I'm eating healthy. There's a 4 day sample menu, but you can interchange some things or do your own thing, as long as you stay within limits.
I come here a lot for support, just don't post. But, I thought this might help someone who is struggling.
