I read the other day that white bread is one of the worst things to eat. The article said it adds to you wieght. That if you are going to eat bread eat wheat.

yogurt, bc it is sweet and very good for you, fat free and little calories.

pastas, breads and potatos are good for carbohydrates. red meats are good for proteins.

Yeah, No course neither.  Everyone above me who pointed that out is just stating the obvious.\nI will actually answer the question and say, Scary Thin, because it`s easier to put on the pounds than lose them.  I like to cook so my girlfriends always gain weight while we are dating.

If you ask me your best bet is a balance of the two, everything in moderation. But if I had to pick one I'd go with low calorie, because its much healthier to be eating fruits and vegetables than all meat all the time.

Mine is fruit. I would rather have chips or chocolate for a snack, but fruit is lower in calories and better for you.

It's all in the weight you gain.  Those things are basically sugar and other carbs, with some protein thrown in.  You might balloon up, but if you're not working out it's not going to be what you had in mind.  Lots of whole foods like meat and eggs and whole grain breads and pastas are a better way to go, but I still throw a shake in sometimes for a quick snack.  I'd stick to protein powders rather than the mega-mass type mixes.

Hello, you are most probably overloading yourself during your meal. you should eat slowly; it takes approximately 10 minutes for your brain to register the amount of food that you have eaten and feel satiety; this feeling of heaviness that you are describing is called heartburn and it's because your stomach is full very quickly and there is not much time for it to ''stretch'' enough and start the digestion process. the other thing that i am thinking is that you probably do not eat at regular times and you eat once a day while the rest of the day you don't eat anything. if you do that, it's very bad for your digestive system and you need to have snacks in between meals. it's not because of the carbs though. (you said it already for yourself...'a lot of pasta'...it's not the type, it's the quantity).Best of luck.

Look for 3 grams of fiber at least in any bread. "Matthews" is the only bread with no sugar and trans fats. That's what I eat.

LOL... OK, first of all, it's nice to meet someone who's that honest.\n\nNow, you just need to cut out the carbs.  White bread is horrible for "belly fat".

ask for a healthy compromise like whole grain bread, pasta, and cereals.

I would have gone with a sweeter, softer bread myself. Maybe like a honey wheat roll... I would go with a more tender cut of meat. Say- obese baby?! Barring composition (the mayo made the tomato slip out, you need to seperate them or they will fight) we shall give it an overall 7.

Drink lots of water and don't shun carbs, our brain needs them to function! Stick with smart carbs. Stay away from processed foods. Good healthy snacks to keep you going are V-8 juice, lowfat mozzerella sticks and whole wheat pita bread with hummus. That way you feel sustained and don't break down and gorge at meals!\nWhen I cook pasta I make the Barilla Plus, which has 17g protein, 7 g fiber, and 360 mg of Omega 3! Now that is a healthy way to get your pasta. I put veggies in my pasta dishes every chance i get to add some fiber and help fill me up. Bell Peppers are a good choice sliced and mixed in with some chopped chicken breast.\nTry and eat fruits and veggies every chance you can. They are amazingly low in calories and will help fill you up. Good choices are spinach salad, crisp, cold green grapes, and sweet sugar snap peas for snacking on.\nEat lean and low-fat sources of protein at every meal, it should be part of a calorie-controlled diet that's also rich in 'smart carbs' such as fruits, vegetables, and whole grains, along with healthy fats like nuts, seeds, olives, oils, fish, and avocado.\nBe sure to look for protein sources that are nutrient-rich and lower in fat and calories, such as lean meats, beans, soy, and low-fat dairy.\nI think the best diet is the 3 hour diet. \nThe problem with other diets is that they require starving your body of needed calories or carbs, things we need to survive and have proper brain function! When we do that, our body goes into survival mode and doesn't want to burn fat like we want it to! They cause you to lose lean muscle tissue and lean muscle is your metabolism, your resting metabolism.\nIt is well known that high levels of cortisol hormone (which is produced when we cut too many calories & put our body under stress) are closely associated to abdominal fat. Medical research has shown that eating every three hours helps reduce levels of cortisol and that is the key to losing belly fat first.\nBy eating every three hours you lower belly fat, you burn two pounds a week and you prevent muscle loss, which keeps your metabolism active. Then you constantly reset the metabolism so you're constantly burning fat. That's the beauty of what it does, and because there are no bad foods, it brings back the joy of eating.\nThat is what I try to do and recently I learned that there is actually a Yale University endorsed 3-Hour Diet™!\nI could explain how it works, but I'll let the experts do the talking.\nGood Luck!\n\nMango\n\n"The Yale University endorsed 3-Hour Diet™ is about uncovering the buried concept of timing – the fact that when you eat is critical to weight loss. By eating every three hours you’ll constantly set in motion your metabolism™ and lose two pounds a week starting with belly fat first. And you will never have to count calories or ban any foods including carbs.\n\nSo how does the 3-Hour Diet™ work exactly? The answer is found in what we call: Time Based Nutrition™. It’s the future of effective nutrition. Think of it as a new category of nutrition. Forget low-fat or low-carb. It’s the power of combining smart eating with smart timing. Yes, timing. You see, the secret to losing weight and keeping it off has to do with much more than what you eat.\n\nWhy every 3-hours? Countless numbers of research studies have confirmed the power of eating every three hours. What specifically happens if you wait more than 3 hours to eat? Well, after 3 hours your body passes a tipping point and signals your body to launch its natural “starvation protection mechanism” or your SPM. When your SPM is switched on, your body preserves the most calorie-rich tissue in the body to ensure your survival. That tissue is body fat. But there’s even more bad news. This is the most critical point you must never forget about the 3-Hour Diet™: Anytime you allow more than 3 hours to pass without eating, your body not only preserves body fat, but wors

If you wish to put on weight(have you got medical advice on whether you need to put on  weight?) don't believe that you need to eat fats. There are good fats and bad fats (eg bad fat - fats in burgers etc as opposed to good fats - avocado, olive oil etc) and all an increase in bad fats will do is put you ate risk of bad cholesterol problems, resulting in heart disease etc. Yes there are two types of cholesterol - bad and good (hld and ldl) To gain weight it is carbohydrates you need. Pasta, bread, rice, potatoes etc. Weight gain is caused through eating more carbs than your body comsumes eg if you eat heaps of bread, pasta, patries etc and never exercise you will put on weight due to the fact that you are not burning up the carbs (the body's fuel source). I would increase your carbohydrate intake - however please still exercise for good health. You need to aim for more carbohydrate than you are burning. First and foremost though I would get yourself to a doctor to ensure you do not have any complications such as an enlarged thyroid etc which could be stopping you from putting on weight, and please still eat fruit and veg to keep your health stable. Also have at least 3 fish meals a week or take fish oil tablets as your body needs Omega 3's so it can function well. Good luck.

Calories come from various sources...  protein (meats, poultry, fish, cheeses, etc.), carbohydrate (fruits, vegetables and grains), fat (olive oil, margarine, butter).  All calories "count" but eating a high percentage of your calories from fat, regardless of the type, is unhealthy unless you're on a low-carb diet.\n\nMany people say, "A calorie is a calorie," but of late they are finding that protein calories burn differently than processed carbohydrate calories.  People attempting to lose weight find they do better by eating fewer "white" carbohydrates like bread, potatoes, pasta and rice because your blood sugar level stays more stable.
