Low Carb Diets - Are They Right For You? ~ by Kate Fox

Thinking about low carb diets? Wondering if you should try one to lose weight? Or maybe you're just wondering what's the big deal?

Low carbohydrate diets have been around for years, in one form or another. And there are several different types of these diets on the market. But are they effective? Do they work?

First of all - What Are They?

All foods are a mix of carbohydrates, proteins and fats. Carbohydrates turn into glucose in your body. You need the hormone insulin to unlock the doors of your cells to let the glucose in.

When insulin is released it also signals your body to store fat. So too many carbs can put your body in a state where it want to store fat - and not burn it.

Protein and fat do not need insulin to get into your cells. When you eat mostly high protein or fat foods instead of carbohydrates, your body starts to burn fat (instead of glucose) for fuel. Your insulin levels fall and your body goes into fat burning mode, instead of fat-storing mode. That's the main reason people lose weight with a low carb diet.

A byproduct of your body's fat burning are substances called ketones - which show up in your blood stream and in your urine. Hence a lower carb diet is also sometimes called a ketogenic diet as well - your body is producing ketones which means it's burning fat.

Low Carb diets are basically diets where you keep your carbohydrate count very low. You may do this by cutting out high carb foods like bread, pasta, muffins, sweets, chocolates and even sometimes higher carb fruits like bananas and pineapples.

Most lower carb diets emphasize lean meats, nuts, seeds, eggs, some dairy, vegetables and low carb fruits like berries.

Different plans can range in how many carbs they allow you to eat in their diet. Popular lower carbohydrate diets include the Atkins diet (very low carb), the ketogenic diet and the South Beach diet. There are other options too like carb-controlled diet food delivery and recipe books that teach you to cook lower carbohydrate meals.

Benefits of Low Carb Plans:

Lower carbohydrate plans can be very helpful for people who haven't had good success on other types of diets. The added protein can help to keep you fuller for longer periods of time and stave off snacking.

These diets can also be very beneficial for diabetics to help them keep their blood sugar levels under control and insulin steady. They can also help pre-diabetics or those with blood sugar problems as it helps to avoid major blood sugar swings.

Drawbacks of Lower Carb Plans:

Some people find that a very low carb diet makes them feel lethargic (our muscles prefer to use glucose for fuel). If that is you, you may want to add a few more slow-acting carbs into your diet like berries, apples, beans or oatmeal.

Also, it can take some preparation to make these meals, which is why some people like to try a low carb diet delivery service when they are starting out.

To summarize, a lower carbohydrate diet can help you lose weight and there are definite benefits to trying it. However just be aware of the drawbacks too. Regardless of what you decide to do, make sure to listen to your body and consult your doctor before making any major changes to your diet.

Trying the Low Carb Thing

On Saturday, March 26, I decided to go low carb. Im almost at the end of day 4 and doing well. I also started Tae bo on Sunday and plan on doing that at least 5 days a week. I have to say, I don't feel hungry, and I find that my calorie intake has diminished, maybe because I feel fuller longer...anywayz, I pray I stick to my routine. lost some lbs this month, but I want post my new weight until April first. I will try to make sure I post my results from the prior month and also goals for the following month on the 1st of each month. Stay tuned:-)

Sugar? A Drug?

For quite some time, I have had the belief that sugar is akin to a drug...ADICTIVE! I have been interested in finding out if there are any studies that confirm or support this notion of mine. I really have not had the time to do my research on this, but this book seems to be an interesting start.

The Master Cleanse

The Master Cleanse (also known as the Lemonade Diet, Master Cleanser, Maple Syrup Diet, Lemonade Cleanse, Lemon Diet, Lemon Cleanse, and the Beyonce Diet) was created by Stanley Burroughs in 1941 and later popularized by Peter Glickman in his 2004 book, Lose Weight, Have More Energy and Be Happier in 10 Days (2nd edition published 2005). Many people, such as Robin Quivers and Beyonce (see before and after photos, left), have lost significant weight, although that is not the aim of the cleanse.

Lose 10 lbs in 30 Days ...

Yes, this is my goal for the month of November. Some nerve I have, being that Thanksgiving is a little over 3 weeks away! Anyway...I'm going to do it! I am starting off at 174 lbs so my goal is to be 164 lbs by 11/30/2010. I plan on reaching my goal by keeping track of my food intake and exercises using Sparkpeople.com. As far as my food intake is concerned, my goal is to stay within the 1200-1500 calorie range. As far as exercise is concerned, my goal is to do cardio 7 days a week using my treadmill for at least 24 minutes(yeah, 24 minutes is odd, but I have my reasons)and to strength train 3 times a week. I will not post any weight updates until 11/30/2010, but stay tuned for odds and ends posts about Beyonce, stress management, diet and fitness!!

I plan on doing this by exercising on my treadmill at least 4 times a week for 1 hour and keeping track of my calories eaten and exercise by recording my progress on sparkpeople.com(very good site I might add)...For those who have followed this blog in the past, I would like to update you on how things have been going with me...its been ROUGH, LOL!!!...Thats all I can say:-) But Im baaaack and ready to lead by example:-) I am still in school and will obtain an Associates Degree in Pre-Dietetics in Spring of 2011...Very happy about that!! Also, I have been working on putting together a fitness website which will focus on the three aspects of total well-being: Stress Management, Nutrition, and Fitness. The name of the website is HerMindandBody and the motto for my website is K.I.S.S. - Keep it Simple Sweetie...If you'd like to take a look at it go to HerMindandBody.com. It's still under construction, but I plan to launch it in January 2011. The site will be a cross between facebook and myspace...but the difference will be that it will be a community for women who have a desire to attain total well-being. Tools will be available to members to help them acheive their goals. These online tools will include food/exercise journals, nutrition/fitness/stress assessments, and more. This site will also be an excellent source for health/fitness/stress management information...Stay tuned:-)
