Green Yellow
The kind of carbs you eat makes a big difference when it comes to your weight. There are the good, unprocessed carbs, like raw veggies, fresh fruit and green food powder. And there are the bad, processed carbs, like candy, muffins, white rice, bagels, or anything made with white processed sugar or flour.
You have to eat good carbs (combined with lean protein and healthy fats) at every meal to:
- provide fiber to curb hunger and stabilize blood sugar,
- provide glucose to fuel your brain — glucose is the only thing that can do this
- burn body fat — if you don’t get a steady supply of glucose your body thinks it’s in emergency “starvation” mode and stores everything as fat instead of using it as energy
Processed carbs, on the other hand, provide no nutritional value whatsoever and make you retain water. Get rid of the processed carbs altogether and the water can go away.
To lose up to 5 pounds in one week, cut out salt and switch from bad carbs to good carbs, like green food powders, and watch the retained water disappear. But you must cut out all the bad carbs. No cheating!
Replace all the bad carbs with these 5 good carbs so that you can lose the 5 pounds of water in one week (best carbs listed first) :
#1. Powdered greens — 1 scoop (includes wheat grass, spirulina, barley grass, and other green nutrient-dense superfoods)
#2. Veggies — unlimited raw vegetables, non-starchy are best (e.g. green, yellow, red, and orange vegetables, and avoid potatoes that are white on the inside); OR 2-3 cups of grilled, steamed, lightly sautéed, non-starchy vegetables
#3. Legumes (e.g. beans, peas, lentils) — 1 cup cooked
#4. Yams, sweet potatoes, pumpkin or summer squash — 1/2 cup
#5 Whole grains (e.g. brown rice, old fashioned oatmeal, wild rice, barley, quinoa, whole wheat, kamut) — 1/2 cup cooked
Other good carbs include fresh or frozen fruit (high fiber fruit is best but must not be sweetened); whole grain or spouted grain bread; and whole grain pasta.
Unless you’re an endurance athlete, you only need one serving of unprocessed carbohydrates like green powder per meal. But you do need that one serving of carbs so your body doesn’t go into starvation mode and store fat. Make sure you eat a small serving of lean protein and a “thumb-size” of healthy oils at every meal too or else you get a sugar rush and none of the weight-loss benefits like fat burning. Another reason to eat the big three (carbs, protein and oils) at every meal so you don’t feel hungry quickly and overeat.
So, if you don’t want to carry around that extra 5 pounds of water weight anymore, cut out the bad carbs and salt and add in the good carbs like powdered greens .
