Choosing Healthy Carbs for Weight Loss
Choosing Healthy Carbs for Weight Loss
Carbs are often seen as the biggest enemy when it comes to weight loss. They are said to be high in calories and slow down the process of weight loss. No wonder that carbs are one of the first foods that are erased when someone starts a diet. But are carbs really that bad? After all, carbs are a great source of energy and keep you full.

ALL ABOUT EATING LESS CALORIES

Low Calories - Everything You Need to Know

They say the easiest way to lose weight is to cut down on your calorie intake. This can be done in a number of different ways, and Eat Smarter is here to help you on your weight loss, dieting, or general health journey. There are many ways you can start cutting down your portions or calories. Start with a meal: breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Consider low-calorie alternatives to your favorite snacks or alcoholic beverages. 

How to Start Cutting Calories 

Often, starting a new diet sounds great in theory, however, it can be challenging to start and commit to a diet and actually cut those calories. Using a fitness tracker or having a friend or significant other hold you accountable to your weight-loss goals can be a great way to start. You can also start small, with just choosing healthier and low-calorie snacks or desserts.
