This document goes along with our blog Ready! Set! Low Carb!
Low carb can be lots of fun ... if you don't overdo it. The nice thing about it: everyone can have their own tailor-made plan ... Lose a lot or a little? Sweet or salty? Anything goes with low carb. Count calories? Forget about it! Only carbohydrates need to be reduced. Especially the bad ones made from sugar and white flour. How long? Everyone can decide for themselves.
