Why You Should Eat Foods That Taste Good When Losing Weight

I remember reading an old dieting article that said something along these lines:

“Next time you are Hungry? Reach for a bowl of carrots instead of raiding your refrigerator for ice cream.”

This is TERRIBLE advice!

Honestly…

Just typing the phrase “bowl of carrots” makes me hungrier (and slightly angry).

Another piece of jacked-up advice…

“What you think is hunger, could be dehydration. If you are hungry, drink more water!”

We aren’t stupid.

I’m guessing 99.9% of the population can tell the difference between hunger and thirst.

Okay, maybe hydrating will help a bit…

…but even my cat can tell the difference between hunger and thirst.

Violet’s claws come out when water (or carrots) are offered instead of canned cat food.

I think successful diets need lots of foods that hit the middle ground.

• Tastier than carrots.
• Less calorie-dense than ice cream.

I follow a high carb low-fat diet.

I always have things like pretzels and Corn Pops cereal on hand.

I don’t eat this stuff every day.

Although…

When I first began implementing High Carb Fat Loss I did eat like this daily and lost body fat.

I just try these days to eat mainly whole foods when possible (healthiest way to eat over the long term).

But…

NEVER a bowl of carrots <— That snack causes depression and ruins lives.

*** Celery is another home-wrecker.

Always make sure you have “middle ground” snacks on hand (foods that taste good to you but aren’t extremely calorie dense). 

They aren’t ideal for every meal…

…but that will satisfy you while still helping you to lose weight.
