It seems like the best option, but healthy weight loss is about the overall nutrient profile of your diet. Base meals around high-fibre foods, lean proteins and fruit and veg for long-term success.
2 YOU MUST CUT OUT CARBS
With a restrictive diet, you might see slightly faster initial loss. But, most studies show there’s no difference long-term. You don’t have to cut out carbs, but reducing them slightly and eating more protein could help. It’s worth a try if that suits you. If not, keep enjoying the carbs. Just choose the right type, such as fibre-rich wholegrains.
