Re: no carbs for a month before wedding?
I remember learning in my health class at uni that if you cut out carbs completely, you will feel more tired and have lack of energy.
If you look at the food pyramid, the carbs are at the very bottom and make up the biggest part of the triangle. That's because carbs are what provide you energy...that's like you #1 energy fuel.
The difference is between the quality of carbs. You don't want simple carbs that are found in cookies, cakes, candy. Foods containing simple carbs contain fewer nutrients and are more fattening.
It's best to opt for foods with complex carbohydrates such as fruits and veggies. Such foods are less fattening and contain more nutrients such a fiber and protein which aid in weight loss because they keep you feeling fuller for a longer time period (so you don't feel hungry so soon).
Don't eliminate. Eat in moderation. Pick the right carbs. And exercise.
