Low Carb Dieting Secrets



14. Living Low-Carb



Written by Fran McCullough, the author of The Low-Carb Cookbook, this book’s rather long subtitle promises to teach “everything food-loving dieters need to know to achieve lasting success, including: strategies for controlling binges and cravings, dealing with sudden weight gains and secret metabolic weapons”.

This book is a companion piece to the low-carb diet of your choice and is intended to give you tips and tricks to make the road to low-carb success smoother and a lot less bumpy.

This volume contains sources of low-carb bread and other goodies and how to make vegetables taste like pasta.  There are also tips for various kitchen gadgets that can make your life easier and suggestions for stocking a low-carb pantry.

McCullough also offers suggestions for eating low-carb on a very active lifestyle.  For instance, there are tips for camping or backpacking through Europe.  There are also suggestions for handling your carb cravings with low-carb substitutes.  For instance, she gives a simple recipe for a crustless pizza and potato skins.  There is even an ice cream substitute suggestion that incorporates dairy and fruit.

While McCullough does go over many of the low-carb diet basics in the beginning of this book, she mainly gives tips, tricks and recipes.  Do not look here for diet basics.
