Will cutting carbs help me lose weight?

CArbs are used in your body as a source of energy, if u dont comsume carbs... your body will start to break down protein as an energy source, which aint good cuz protien is used for tissue repair, immune system etc.  Plus you'll probably get headaches and always feel tired if u cut out carbs.  You will loose some weight, but only because you are in fact cutting calories.  any diet will work if u cut calories.  your best bet is to try to stick to a well balanced diet, WATCH serving sizes, and EXERCISE!!

NO, do not cut down on *food intake", it's the number of calories that you need to cut down on.  You can eat the same amount of food if not more, but with lower a mount of calories.  Eat much more of fiber, lean protein, and complex carbs to keep you full, nutritionally sufficient, energy for daily activiites, and aid in weight mainenance once you get there.  Drink  a lot of water (about half your body weight in ounces, i.e. 132 /2 = 66 ....66 ounces).  You'll lose one pound a week of you eliminate 500 calories from your daily diet; 2 pounds if 1000 calories.  This is the case if you make no other changes.  However, you are more likely to lose muscle mass or water weight  than fat if you just cut out on calories but skimp on exercise, particularly weight-training.  Once you add on exercise, you can cut out less calories....

if you need to lose weight quickly and without exercising then doing the atkins diet will drop the pounds of very quickly...very few carbs and lots of protein..long term weightloss is healthier and by having a few carbs and more protein is better than no carbs at all..you will loose weight more steadily..also eat your largest meal in the day rather than the evening as you are more likely to burn off the calories

did you just stop eating "sugar" or did you stop eating carbohydrates altogether?  carbs are necessary for you to maintain your level of energy.  do not stop eating them altogether.  if you need to cut back on carbs, then limit yourself to about 8 15g servings per day.  each slice of bread counts as one, so if you have a sandwich that is two servings.  a large apple or orange counts as two servings.\nkeep in mind that the only requirement for losing weight is taking in fewer calories than you are burning.  if cut your diet to about 1500 calories, the average person metabolizes more than that in a day, so you'll probably lose weight.  if you have a sedentary lifestyle you may need to consume even fewer than that to lose weight.  weight loss is not about how many carbs you are eating, its about how many calories you are eating compared to how many you are burning.  there are things you can do to increase the number of calories that you are burning, like cardio exercises and weight lifting.  find a nice, safe spot to walk if you need to get active, like a lake or just around your neighborhood.\ndon't be discouraged by gaining weight.  a healthy lifestyle is not about weight gain/loss, its about how you feel on the inside.  if you have been working out and eating right and you feel better about yourself, that is ALL thats important!

Acutally, the bulk of your daily energy is supposed to come from carbs.  They are necessary for a healthy diet.  Yes, cutting out cards will allow you to lose weight, but in an unhealthy way.  Your body will begin to rely on the next thing in line, proteins, for it's energy supply.  Proteins are supposed to be used for rebuilding tissues, repair, etc.  So, I recommend you follow a guide to healthy eating and start exercising if you feel the need to lose weight.

Low carb diets are not healthy. You need carbs to give you energy. The best way to lose weight is exercise. Eat healthier. Once a person starts to exercise they tend to like it. I like running. Running helps reduce stress, gets you in shape, and makes you feel better. Try running with friends. Oh yeah and remember, patience is a virtue.

No, that is normal. When eating right, means cutting out alot of breads and pastas and pretty much everything else that is good outhere. Carbs are need in the body. But the right carbs will help you loose weight and have more energy. look at the atkins diet it gives you alot info on the carbs. \n\nCarbs are yummy..

Carbs are great for getting a burst of energy before you work out.  It's a horrible idea for a diet though, unless you are a professional athlete that works out constantly, and even then it's a bad idea.  The best diet is one based on carbs, protein, fruits and veges, and lots of cheese (ok, I am from WI and we like cheese a lot) and a sweet snack for fun.  As long as you have a balanced diet and work out somewhat (going for walks or even going to the gym a couple times a week) then you are fine.  There are a million books on dieting, but cutting out a lot of bad snacks: sweets, soda, and alcohol (like I said I am from WI, so I like beer and I treat myself to some beers once and a while) you are doing well.  You must be looking to lose weight so I will tell you that no pill or fad diet will make you lose weight and be healthy for you.  You just need to eat most of the foods you like, and cut out the sodas and candies as much as you can.  You can still slpurge once and a while,  but don't fall into these fad diets or pills.  They just want to make money off you.  Don't starve yourself and don't deprive yourself of foods you like, that makes you feel like being tortured.  Just be active and have fun.  Good luck.

it depends on your metabolism, but wouldn't recommend it as a long term solution to losing weight since it'll probably lead you to an eating disorder of some kind.  just try reducing your food intake and go on a low carb diet with lots of veggies and some fruits.

I bought it and wasted my money.  It didn't eliminate my appetite one bit.  My advice is to change your eating habits.  Common sense here is invaluable.  Eliminate sweets and carbs.  Eat more raw and cooked vegs and more lean meat, and the pounds will drop off.

no, there are no healthy ways to lose weight quickly ad maintain weightloss. All of those fad diets are not based on evidenced based science. They are based on a billion dollar dieting industry. Healthy weight loss should be 1-2 pounds a week. I would suggest doing something sensible like weight watchers, not the low carb diets.
