Here's the Deal: Eating Too Many Carbohydrates in One Go, WILL Make You Fat

Why Do I Have To Reduce The Amount Of Carbs I Eat?

Here's the deal: Eating too many carbohydrates in one go, WILL make you fat.

Instantly.

Ok, not by much... or not by so much that you'd notice. It'll make you fatter by maybe 10-20g if you didn't go mad. If you've just eaten a whole packet of biscuits, three packets of Rolos, had a hot chocolate and a whole family bag of Doritos, then yes, you're going to SEE a difference.

10-20g may not seem a lot, but if you're carbs are out of control, that could be 20g every meal and snack... soon becoming extra pounds and even whole stones in weight that just seemed to 'creep' on.

I'll explain myself in just a moment. First though, just as quick aside, I don't think carbs are bad or evil. I actually believe you cannot have a healthy diet without them. So I'm not recommending a 'carb-free' existence, oh no.

All I'm saying is... CURB YOUR CARBS!

Time for the science bit!

When you eat carbohydrates, they get broken down in your gut into sugar. This sugar then passes into your blood so that it can be transported to al the bits of you that will use it as energy - your muscles, liver and brain, to name a few. (These organs NEED sugar to function which is one of the reasons why you must never cut out carbs completely!)

It's now called 'blood sugar' and your body closely monitors the level of your blood sugar, as having too much sugar in your blood is toxic and dangerous for you. This is known as 'high blood sugar'.

If there is a lot of sugar in your blood, or your body sense that there soon will be because the levels are rising very quickly, it acts IMMEDIATELY to return your blood sugar levels back to safer ground.

To do this, it releases a hormone called INSULIN.

I like to call insulin the fat storing hormone...

When this response is triggered, as much sugar as possible is cleared from your blood and safely stored elsewhere for future use. This storage area is actually your fat cells and they get all nice and full and plump and big and....

...you just got fatter!

So this is why you should REDUCE the amount of carbohydrates you eat... because gaining fat only takes an instant!

Need To Lose Weight? Here's Why You Should Be On The Dukan Diet

Dr. Pierre Dukan understood the changing needs of the individual when he created his diet. He also took into consideration the desperate importance of not putting the lost weight straight back on again after the diet is over. It is this aspect of the Dukan diet that makes it unique. It is the only diet solution that incorporates the post-diet menu and eating into the overall weight loss experience.

Key to the diet is the psychology of the dieter. Motivation to stick it out, to keep on losing weight without losing heart and to keep the weight off once lost is what this plan is all about. The Dukan diet comes in four stages. During the first stage the dieter quickly loses some weight and develops a new attitude to food. Due to the high protein content of the menu, hunger is almost not existent and food cravings are minimal. Feeling hungry all the time and being desperate to eat familiar but fatty snacks is the pitfall most unsuccessful dieters all too often fall into. This desperation is all but eliminated on the Dukan diet. Over the next stage of the diet new foods are added, retuning the dieter to the tastes and flavors of healthy foods such as green, leafy vegetables. Rather than something to be avoided or forced down in the name of 'eating something healthy' vegetables become a food looked forward to and relished The third stage is all about slowly freeing the dieter from the diet restrictions and introducing treats, and celebration foods back into their menu. Finally, the last stage of the diet is all about living the rest of life eating healthily, avoiding weight gain and enjoying food.

The advantages of the Dukan diet are many. There is the fast initial weight loss. It is much easier to tell people you are on a diet when you don't have to tell them at all! Friends and family who can see the weight you've lost will be much less likely to pressure you in to eating if they can see the progress you've already made. There is the lack of hunger and food cravings. It is much easier to stick to a diet when you are not constantly hungry and thinking about food. The third phase of the diet allows to you introduces sweets and treats without putting all the weight back on. What other diet plans take not putting the weight back on when the diet is over into consideration? None, they all leave you on your own once you've finished them. The Dukan diet does not. Finally, this diet factors in celebration meals when you can eat exactly what you want and not put the weight back on. On what other diet can you have a meal in the restaurant, eat whatever you like, and still be sticking to your diet?
