Manage Carbohydrates to Help Avoid Setbacks

If you are concerned about some of the things you’ve heard about reducing your consumption of carbohydrates, it may be time to reconsider your position. Although no menu plan is a cure all, managing your carb intake can help you avoid setbacks. Some experts claim that your body does not know the difference between intentional weight loss and famine, which is why your body may try to hold onto its stored fat deposits by lowering your metabolic rate. The ideal weight loss journey would include a steady shedding of unwanted pounds until you reached your goal weight. However, it seldom works that way, so don’t get angry and quit if your body takes time to adjust to change. When your weight loss journey comes to a screeching halt, understand that no sustainable plan is going to be linear, and plateaus are important steps along the way.

  • Drink Water Before Meals - Satiety is the opposite of hunger. The more satisfied you feel after eating a meal or snack, the less hunger you feel and the easier it is to lose weight and keep it off.
  • Track Macronutrient Intake - Failing to plan is planning to fail. It sounds time consuming but tracking how much you eat of each macronutrient can help you implement a plan to overcome a weight loss plateau.
  • Add Protein Throughout the Day - While most appetizers add calories, eating a lean protein like carrot sticks or a broth-based soup can reduce your total calorie intake for the overall meal.
  • Opt for Healthy Treats - If you are still hungry after a meal, enjoy fresh fruit like raspberries, mangoes, cherries, strawberries, or blueberries and avoid calorie-rich desserts.

Personalized menus are definitely the best option for people who suffer from food allergies and intolerances. Our plan makes it much easier for you to choose the foods you eat based on your unique health conditions and personal preferences. Even though your weight loss efforts have stalled, take a moment to reflect on how you have already improved your health and quality of life. Then, call MRC for personalized assistance with bump starting your journey. If you’ve been trying to lose weight but always seem to be going in circles, a personalized menu plan can help you get past any plateau. Even eating something less healthy, is okay but only once in a while. A personalized menu plan from Metabolic Research Center is not a restrictive crash diet. Quite the opposite, a personalized plan is a sustainable approach to losing weight that requires you to feed yourself properly.
