See the difference with complex carbs

What is the difference between just a thin body and a cut body? Someone can wear a small size without necessarily having a lot of muscle definition. How do you get more "cut"? As far as diet, the answer is not only in being MINDFUL of your calories. You have to look at what those calories are made up of.

One thing I do when I want a leaner, more toned look is really look at where my carbohydrates are coming from. (Carbs are not inherently bad!) Start today and integrate into your diet more whole grains like old fashioned oats, brown rice, millet, and quinoa along with broccoli, Brussels sprouts, yams, carrots, and my favorite KALE. Who can turn down fewer energy crashes and more cut arms and abs?

Those veggies don't entice you? Try tossing them with a little olive oil and a little salt and/or herbs and oven roasting them for 20-30 minutes at 400F. Seriously yummy!!

Nicely done Tracy!!!! Glad that you are explaining that Carbs are not the problem...it's too much of the processed grains mixed with sugar and fat and who knows what. :-) Look forward to more!


	Tracy on Tuesday, August 30, 2011 7:22 PM Thank you for the positive feedback Jeanette! Yes, processed grains are definitely in the "treat/once in a while" category!
