Rate my dinner. Today is my carbs day.

I'm on a low carb diet but have read somewhere that eating a limited amount of carbs once or twice a week could actually be better for a low carb diet. So here it is.

if you've gonna have the occasional carb, i'd go with a grain.

you know you're missing bread. have a slice or two of a good whole wheat bread.

>fucking with carbs
enjoy your unnecessary cravings, food obsession and no energy.
I honestly can't see the point of fucking up your life this hard just for lower bf%. Lesser quality of life hugely outweighs it, and it's not like it's the only effective method of quickish weight loss.

Just eat less, move more and eat what you consider to be healthy. The desire of dietary extremism tends to die out when you realize there's more to life than dietary selection and (for the want of a less overused word)vanity.

There's also the issue of nobody wanting to eat nothing but low carb food for the rest of their lives. Just eat less like you said.

have you been in deep ketosis?

it keeps your appetite. you have to remind yourself to eat.

keto is incredibly useful for people with ravenous appetites.

i'm not a /fit/izen, just a guy. I honestly don't care that much. being fit is more important to me than being /fit/.

you're probably right though. i'm entirely willing to exaggerate my passion in current topic if it means having a bit of fun in my relaxed state.

OP here, no one actually rated my dinner. I don't understand what even happened in this thread.

>>5273359
Baked potato with greek yogurt. It was actually very good.

>>5273278
Hmm the first week was hard, breaking the carb addition that most unhealthy diets place on us. The second week was a lot easier, afterwards it no longer matters. I'm not doing this for shits and giggles to drop a pant size, I've been steadily losing weight for the past 9 months, I ride a bike 5 days a week for an hour and I walk a ton.

I'll probably eat some bread on Sunday.

I don't know what you think a healthy diet is, but there's no such thing as a "healthy, low-carb diet" if you're a human being

Tell me who you know personally that follows a healthy carb filled diet. These days the average person overindulges in unhealthy processed carbs which are covered in processed fats to make them edible and they usually make up 75% of their diets.

You're brainwashed by the food pyramid into thinking most of what you should eat is carbs.

>> No.5274048

>>5273242
The two best carbs sources are sweet potatos and good rice, any grain is shit.
And your supposed to eat starch once per week or two, not any carbs. It's needed for eyes and stomach lining

that wouldn't keep me full for long and I don't even eat very much

You don't need a super high carb diet, but it's something like 120 g a day for proper brain function (~480 kcal). There are other means of producing glucose for your brain, but carbs are the easiest. Do whatever doe.

I didn't eat anything for 4 hours afterwards and wasn't hungry at all for 3. Ate some papaya in the evening. It's more filling than you think.

I'll eat more carbs when I lose more weight. I exercise 60 minutes a day but I think in the near future I'll increase that to 90 and will be able to accommodate more carbs in my diet.

Planning to start a low carb diet myself, I just cannot find anywhere what forms the "bulk" of your foods, i.e. the substitution for a bun, potatoes, rice. I came up only with using zuchhini (however you spell that in english language) but the idea of eating zuchini more than 4 times a week makes me cringe.

That depends on what kind of low carb diet you want to be on. Some people like me just eat a lot more vegetables, you can pretty much eat all of them except potatoes. Root vegetables and beans are high carb, practically anything else is low carb. Then there are some people who eat everything except cabs, so they eat a lot of meat and fat but next to no carbs.

Whatever works for you. I'm not doing this as some miracle diet, I just want to eat more veg/fruit and feel generally healthier. I eat one shitty meal a week on Saturday or Sunday, delicious shitty meal...

Me, and people I know impersonally are every athlete in the world and every major civilization of humans, including and especially the longest living people on the planet, the Okinawans of Japan, who have an especially high carbohydrate diet

>You're brainwashed by the food pyramid into thinking most of what you should eat is carbs.

No, I'm educated to know that whole grains, legumes, and fruits are some of the most consistently beneficial foods in existence whenever studied, and that meat, eggs, and dairy are the opposite. Why you think we evolved from lions instead of fruit-eating apes, I have no idea, but carbohydrate are what we're designed for.
