Sometimes I still feel like *** am I doing? Having extra butter? Cream?
At work I was speaking to a colleague who tries all sorts of diets and we call her the diet queen.
I told her I’m on a diet and she offered to make me a cuppa with green top milk. I said I’ll have a black coffee and at home i put double cream in the coffee or tea and with butter at times
Her response:
OMG don’t do that it’s fattening!
I show folks my tummy in that situation, with "and you should have seen my tummy BEFORE I cut the carbs and raised the healthy fat! It's the carbs that are fattening."
High carbs has decimated the health of many of my family members, and I am not shy in speaking openly about this. Comparing tummies on high carb versus low carb and high fat is a no-brainer for me too. (I believe that the dynamite duo - wheat and dairy - does various things in various doses to many of my family members -it's just a question of finding out which culprit it is...) (That high carbs is bad for us - in my family - is the given...)
