Just a quick suggestion irrelevant of if you’re on a low carb diet, another diet or no diet and you’re just trying to eat healthily – try substituting our your pastas and rices with egg noodles. Egg noodles will still produce a similar texture to pasta in your spag bol etc recipes but have lower carbohydrates which will aid in lowering your daily calorie intake which is important when trying to lose weight.

Remember the #1 key to weight loss (what you don’t need to join a weightloss club to work out too):

the amount of calories/kilojoules you consume should be lower than the amount of calories/kilojoules you burn off. Burning off calories isn’t just spending an hr a day in the gym, it’s also your general physical activity from getting up to make a coffee instead of having someone else bring you one, walking up stairs instead of taking the escalators or elevators, getting off the bus a stop early to walk home or to work.
