Can Someone Help Me With This Fiber, Protien, Carb, Fullness Thing?
I never feel full when I eat yet I’m developing a belly. People tell me if you eat more fiber/protein you feel full longer? I don’t quite understand. Can someone give me examples of foods? Also, if that is true, is it bad just to eat fiber/protein products all the time? Is there a certain amount im supposed to intake?
Also, I was supposed to lose a bit of weight. When people say “high protein, low carb diet”.. I don’t understand it.. I knew calories were a part of the weight thing but what do carbs do and how do they affect you?
Sorry for the numerous questions. If I could just get some answers..
Thanks in advance!
carbs are grains, certain veggies like potatoes, corn, peas. they give u energy. but for people with sedantry lifestyle, it has to be in moderation.
here is what my dietician recommends – follow a practical diet. Make sure your plate has this ratio – 50% veg, 25% carb, 25% protein (chicken, lentils, cottage cheese etc). eat 900 gms of veggies a day. Start your meal with a big salad or soup. have a snack every three hours. fruit (ideally berries) or soy nuts. just 2 tablespoons of soya nuts subside hunger pangs lose one kilo a week. that is the ideal.
Oatmeal for breakfast is a good start not the sugary flavored kind either just plain oatmeal
