@livinlowcarbman
Very true, much of those “carbohydrates” in those foods are not the good kind. This is unfortunately what most Americans consume and what leads to health issues. Carbohydrates in fresh fruit are also good for you as well.
@aleterra Well, it’s the processed carbohydrates that most Americans are eating which is why we’re making a big deal about them in these videos. But of course the carbohydrates found in foods like broccoli, cauliflower and green leafy veggies, for example, are EXCELLENT for you. The key is controlling insulin rise and all those ingredients I am reading on the back of these “health” foods will SPIKE insulin levels. Thanks for the clarification.
@livinlowcarbman They are all carbohydrates, are they good? I noticed that you only showed processed food. thanks!
@maryposa1978 Honestly, I have no idea how they come up with those numbers.
@alycat25 LOL! I don’t even want to think about it. And I used to eat whole packages of that “smart choice” fig newtons before.
@aleterra What about them?
what about broccoli and green leafy vegetables?
Love these videos. Weight control oatmeal tastes like someone poured a crystal light on the go pack in it and added water YUCK.
And I was never able to stop at two fatfree fig newtons. Or 5
question.,, how does something that has 29g carbs have 37g of whole grains?
@shaunbeatsface Me too! And MUCH healthier, too!
@livinlowcarbman oh yeah! Eggs cream butter coco oil cheese various meats.. Not as colorful as a basketful of general mills but it works for me!
love the videos you’ll do, do you think you can make a video on what you’ll buy on your grocery shopping days. and can we come with you. thanks.
@SyeraMiktayee EXACTLY!
If you can’t get your kids to eat a serving of vegetables WITHOUT resorting to canned ravioli, you’re Doin’ It Wrong.
@Sora1euri2 THANKS for watching!
@mshealthfirst Weight Watchers dieters HAVE to eat a lot of carbohydrates because you’re not eating much fat. We’ll find the “Weight Watchers” brand of products soon.
@shaunbeatsface If your cart is like mine loaded with high-fat foods, they probably think you’re killing yourself and your family, too! LOL!
ya know, I would love you all to do a vid showing what the total of carbs that most people on diets like Weight Watchers eat each day…. it must be astronomical !!!! great series !!
I always get a kick out of the grocery store until I get up to the check out and I see a family with a buggy full of lunchables, cookies and party pizza and then I get sad for their children. I always wonder too what people are thinking when they look in my cart!
i love this series
thanks for posting
