Do you also want to lose weight, but do you still want to eat well? Angela from Club Slim gives 5 tips to eat less carbohydrates. This makes you eat healthier, lose weight and feel fitter.
Before you start, it is wise to clear your kitchen and pantry of all products that contain carbohydrates. So:get rid of that pasta, chips, cookies and soda. These have no place in a low-carbohydrate diet and only tempt you in your weak moments.
Ready meals, packets and sachets contain a lot of unnecessary sugars and many e-numbers, so these can be disguised fatteners. Prepare your meals based on unprocessed chicken, meat, fish and vegetables. But also trade in your breakfast cereals and fruit yogurt for Greek yogurt with a handful of blueberries. At least as tasty!
We have probably all learned that we gain weight by eating too much, and therefore can lose weight by eating less. Nothing is less true. Within a low-carbohydrate diet you avoid the large sugar peaks at the usual eating moments, on the one hand by having fewer carbohydrates in the meals and on the other hand by being able to eat something healthy in between. For example, take a look at these delicious low-carb lettuce wraps.

Fat is often wrongly seen as the culprit of weight gain. While the intake of certain healthy fats is essential as fuel for the body. In the low-carbohydrate diet, fats are converted into ketones, which in turn serve as fuel. So enjoy:avocados, full cream, sour cream, olive oil and Greek yogurt. Of course, stop if you experience a full feeling. As an example, a delicious low-carb snack with healthy fats:stuffed eggs with walnut-avocado pesto.
Many products are nowadays portrayed as healthy, on the one hand by sticking labels on them such as light, sugar-free or healthy choice, but sometimes also less obvious because you do not expect that there will be sugar in them. So don't think that it is better to eat tomato ketchup than mayonnaise, because you only see the sugar in tomato ketchup when you look at the package. If you can, make your own sauces for the barbecue this summer. It sounds more difficult than it actually is, just think of:garlic sauce or honey mustard sauce. Club Slim offers a low-carbohydrate diet via an online slimming program. For only 10 euros per month you will receive a full weekly menu every week with exactly what you can eat per week.
