RSS FeedLow-carbohydrate diets are nutritional programs that advocate restricted carbohydrate consumption. Low carb diets are based on the principle that a diet low in carbohydrates leads to decreased production of body’s insulin, resulting in consumption of fat stores as energy source. Low-carb diets are usually higher in fat. And fat takes longer to digest, which makes you feel fuller longer. Most low-carb diets reduce your overall calorie intake because they strictly limit the variety of foods you can eat.
Carbohydrates — including bread, pasta, rice, cereals, milk, fruit and sweets — usually supply over half of people’s daily calories. Many carbohydrate-containing foods are loaded with essential vitamins, minerals, fiber and other substances that promote health. While eliminating “white” carbs, such as white bread, white rice and white pasta, is fine to do, incorporating whole grains, fruits and other natural carbs is essential. And while you do need carbohydrates, take in moderation if there is little or no weight loss cut the carbs.

http://LivinLaVidaLowCarb.com/blog blogger Jimmy Moore and his wife Christine decided to address the issue of calories and their importance on the healthy low-carb lifestyle in the latest installment of their popular “Livin’ La Vida Low-Carb on YouTube” series.
In Episode 71, Jimmy and Christine talk about whether it is the quantity of calories or the quality of the calories you consume that matters most when you are eating low-carb (or any nutritional approach designed for weight loss for that matter). Although fat has more than twice as many calories per gram as carbohydrate or protein, the nutrient-density of that fat calories will keep your appetite suppressed and hunger under control much more efficiently than consuming large amounts of carbs which actually stimulate insulin leading to hunger pangs shortly after eating them.
Jimmy cites a fantastic book written by low-carb physician Dr. James E. Carlson called “GENOCIDE: How Your Doctor’s Dietary Ignorance Will Kill You!” that you really ought to pick up a copy of for your personal healthy library:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/redirect.html?ie=UTF8&location=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2FGenocide-Your-Doctors-Dietary-Ignorance%2Fdp%2F1419685821%3Fie%3DUTF8%26s%3Dbooks%26qid%3D1212944946%26sr%3D1-1&tag=livilavidalow-20&linkCode=ur2&camp=1789&creative=9325
In Chapter 6 of his book, Dr. Carlson explains why the idea of “burning” calories is mistaken and that in the grand scheme of nutrition the calorie is completely irrelevant. One patient was eating 2,000 calories a day and exercising, but could not lose weight. Dr. Carlson switched him to a high-fat, moderate-protein, low-carb nutritional approach consuming upwards of 6,000-8,000 calories daily without changing his exercise routine and LOST weight. While many of the so-called health “experts” want to deny there is a metabolic advantage to low-carb eating, the fact is people CAN consume MORE calories (mainly fat and protein) and shed the pounds. It happens all the time to those of us who are livin’ la vida low-carb!

http://LivinLaVidaLowCarb.com/blog blogger Jimmy Moore and his wife Christine wanted to look at an important issue regarding why so many people seem to fail when they start on a low-carb (or ANY) diet in the latest installment of their popular “Livin’ La Vida Low-Carb on YouTube” series.
In Episode 67, Jimmy and Christine address those people who have written to them with concerns about “failing” on their low-carb diet because they have ONLY lost 12 pounds in the first two weeks and they expected to lose 25. These unreasonable expectations happen time and time again and they can play psychologically on anyone who becomes obsessed with what the scale tells them about their progress. But you gotta remember to celebrate the successes you have attained and that includes other things besides weight loss like your energy improvements and outstanding health. This video is a friendly reminder that having goals are great, but don’t let them rule you and lead to your diet demise.
