Cutting out Carbs
I am indebted to the excellent blogging and tremendous generosity of nutritionist Kathryn Elliot, who yesterday wrote about How to deal with a carb addiction (my downfall!). Here’s an excerpt:
Beating carbohydrate cravings is all about managing your blood sugar levels and keeping insulin under control. Each time your blood sugar levels drop too low you will crave carbohydrates.
Therefore if you can keep blood sugar levels even-keeled, you’ll reduce the risk of carb cravings.
I recommend a visit to Kathryn’s post (via clicking her underlined title above) as well as giving her 5 steps a try. (And if you live in Sydney, maybe you could check out her practise).
[Kathryn has also written for Great Circle before on the topic How I won the war on cake and other afternoon cravings]
No worries at all Pete. Hope the advice helps. It’d be great if you could report back on your progress . . . she says hopefully!
