Although carbohydrates are not really considered to be an "essential nutrient" necessarily, the body depends on them as its primary energy source. So if you're planning on working out along with dieting on your weight loss journey, I definitely would not cut them out completely or only intake a little--unless you think you'll be able to do that the rest of your life (I would die without my pasta :P).
Thats been the worse thing, I LOVE pasta,Im thinking of trying the wholewheat pasta as it's more of a complex carb! And your right I dont think I could live without carbs long term,I'll try to introduce complex carbs slowly into my diet as I lose the weight :)
Thanks for the advice,and thankyou for watching :)
The drinks issues I can relate to you. It's more like a socializing thing then an alcoholic thing. LOL I struggles in the beginning but I realize that if I really want to lose this weight I will have to cute way back on alcohol. I still drink but very little now :)
Yea you are so right,it's so hard to soccialize without alcohol playing a part of it! But it's got to stop now,Im cutting down big time! I think my liver wants a new donor body..lol.
I am sure that doing low carb would work wonders with me, but I love them too much. Why do you drink beer? I mean, to really get a buzz you've got to drink a few, and they don't really taste that great, either. If you do it for the buzz - Gin, Rum, Whiskey, and Vodka supposedly have 0 carbs. Rum & Diet Coke - 65 calories with 1 oz. of Rum.
I cant belive you dont like the taste of beer....it's so refreshing...lol. But yea , it's not great when your on a diet!
But now you want me to hit the hard stuff...lol. Gin's good though,with low cal tonic water and a slice of lime.....god my mouths watering....hahahah :)
the beer is killer! Yeah I went through a period when I had no idea what to eat (i'm a vegetarian too) and now i eat a lot of beans and rice and quinoa. You look great!
Yea after christmas Im really gonna cut out the beers (sort of..lol). Cool your a veggie,I think im going to try and find a good vegetarian recipe book,I need more variety!! Thankyou :)
Yea, I was talking about you.....lol...you've done the buissnes on the low carb thing :)
I think most of us will gain a bit over crimbo, lifes for living eh?? Why cant they come up with zero calorie beer,they've done it with coke..hahaha :)
Im gunna try and reduce my carbs after xmas, i tend to loose alot of weight that way too, but with me there is no point till after woulds litteraly because i will be on the guiness over the holidays lol anyways hope you have a great christmas =) you look alot healthier btw !!
Ryan--You are going to do this. Remember that "fire" I told you I see? It's still there. Don't let it go. I'm still fighting for you, and I am doing low carb myself, so in my own way...I'm fighting with you (as it were)
YOU'RE LOSING, AND KEEP IT UP, MATE! (Can I still call you that?)
Good luck, man :)

Drink the beer!
Do you guys have Light beers?
I know we do in american, they still have quite the calories, but less then the regular stuff.
Also try some Almond Milk, its great, if u are giving up soy.

But yeah, I would most definitely keep up the carb intake before and after work out at the very least. =D

Ah you're doing the anti carbs thing now?
I dunno if you're talking about me when you mentioned someone losing a couple of stone, haha.
Don't worry about the beer though man, I just had a booze session this weekend and I've gone up 3 pounds =O
Relax for now until Christmas and then after Christmas why don't you continue your quest of weight loss?
Good luck Ryan!
