There is so much confusion out there,low fat diets are not good for you, low carb diets alone are no good for you, what do you do?
Well, here is some friendly advice, and I am sure you are used to getting this. The right balance is to ensure you get a mixture of carbs, protein and the right fats and lots of fibre in your diet.
Protein in the form of meat should be the least amount of intake in any healthy dietary program, but you can get protein from other sources such as dark green vegetables. We all need a balance of carbs, protein and fibre and fats in our diets. Common sense prevails and says not too much fats or protein (meat), but any amount of vegetables are great. Most people on a diet program tend to try and cut out carbs for their evening meal, this can help with digestion as our body tends to slow down in the evenings and while we sleep the digestive system totally shuts down so if you eat late at night it does not really digest until the next day!
If you are stuck on what to eat, I have included a great cookbook here by Lauri Ann Randolph that will also aid your weight loss.
Go for it and stay healthy and lose weight today!

Negative Calorie Foods are they for real???
The quote below came from the Negative Calorie Foods Site:
"All foods have some calories. No food is actually "negative calorie" food. BUT the overall effect of certain foods in our body is that of "negative calories". Negative calorie foods are foods, which use more calories to digest than the calories the foods actually contain!
Calories from these foods are much harder for the body to breakdown and process. In other words, the body has to work harder in order to extract calories from these foods. This gives these foods a tremendous natural fat-burning advantage.
A piece of dessert consisting of 400 calories may require only 150 calories to be digested by our body, resulting in a net gain of 250 calories which is added to our body fat! According to this theory, for example, if you eat 100 calories of a food that requires 150 calories to digest, then you've burnt an additional 50 calories simply by eating that food."

Is this possible? Can a food actually have not only no calories, but even negative calories? And, if it is possible what effect would ingesting negative calories really have? Could you literally eat your way to fat loss...the more you eat the more you lose?
And, on the down side would the ingestion of “negative calories” potentially offset your “positive calorie” energy reserves, canceling out the effectiveness of your bodybuilding training? Because, as we all know we need calories to manufacture energy both for exercise and for recovering from exercise.
