Reading Food Labels

food label
There it is a typical food label. How can we see if we can eat it?

Look at the Carbohydrate part it says 23 gr, this is not a problem. What you have to look is in the sugar part, in this case it says 1 gr. It means is very low sugar food, usually i choose foods with 5 gr or lower. Normally i eat with 1 or 2 gr like almonds.

So the important part is the sugar in the carbohydrates, not the carbohydrates themselves.

Then if you have a food with very high calories i try not to eat much of it. In this case you have 130 , its not much.

I cant stop eatting! How do i start?

Its normal if you are eating now cans of coke, pizzas and burgers and you cant stop eating. That's the sugar,glutamate and some times aspartame that makes you eat almost every hour of the day. Don't worry, i used to eat a pizza at breakfast and i am now with no cravings. That is possible!


Ok, there are two ways to start this diet:

  1. Imagine you want to start a diet in the next Monday. you will eat in the weekend all the candies and sugary food you most like until you cant stand to look at them no more. Be aware that diabetics cant do this "tactic". In Monday, you will be so full of candies that you dont even are going to miss them. So you start the diet with no pain, and your body in a few days will be clean from sugar and the other "addictive" ingredients . The cravings just go away. If you fell a bit cravings just eat almonds.
  2. If the first way doesn't work, you can take some chromium pills, i don't wont to sell nothing so i wont tell any specific brand. Just be careful not to buy any that has many ingredients with the chromium. you take it for about 2 weeks and your cravings just calm down and you start the diet quietly.
Good Luck!
