5 REASONS TO EAT CARBOHYDRATES ‘WITH PLEASURE’

Are carbohydrates synonymous with hell and damnation? No way, kid, are you crazy? Most fit girls unjustly put carbohydrates in the ban corner and go completely overboard. “What? A brown sandwich with cheese, have you completely lost your mind or something?” Yes, I guess I have. Because I am in love with bread. And cheese.

And now I'm going to tell you why you absolutely don't need to feel guilty if you enjoy eating that too:

1. People who eat carbohydrates are generally slimmer

Yes, really. Scientists at the University of Surrey come up with conclusions that make me happy: people who eat carbohydrates consume about 10 percent (150 to 200 calories) less the next day because they simply feel less hungry. After that sandwich, they don't have to reach for something else, but the anti-carb girls do.

2. It's really hard to avoid them altogether

It doesn't just help to resist pasta and sweets, you know. Carbohydrates are also found in fruit, vegetables, yogurt, canned tomato sauce, and salad dressing. Good luck with that.

4. You can make it as healthy as you want

No one has ever lost weight from loads of brownies, Turkish pizzas, and donuts (that would be nice, by the way…). But seriously: a toasted whole grain sandwich with an egg, avocado, and tomato is super healthy. Right, Jet?

5. A number two? No problemo!

I did a diet for ten weeks (check the result here) and can tell you that your bowel movements get, uh, quite confused from that. With pills, I had to help things get ‘going’ again. Damn, long live normal pooping.
