7 Secrets to Sticking to Your Low Carb Diet by Sylvie Charrier

Just because something is low carb doesn't mean that it should be a free-for-all. Be sure to check on cholesterol, saturated fats, sugars, and calories before you start gorging on any low carb treat. Moderation is always the key!

Buy A Cookbook

Got the low carb blahs? Can't think of anything low carb to make? Want to quit your diet because it's so boring? Buy a cookbook! There are countless great low carb cookbooks on the market today. Beyond that, you can transform just about any recipe into a low carb version. Don't give up because you're bored, buy a cookbook and open up page after page of possibility.

A Loaf of Cabbage and Slice of Lettuce?

Where do those carbs like to hide? That's right—in the bread! But, without bread, how do you keep your burgers bunched, your salami slammed, or your cheese closed? By wrapping it in a leaf of cabbage or lettuce, of course! Not only will it hold your sandwiches together, it gives a great crunch to every bite!

Send It Back

Many low carb dieters fall off the bandwagon when eating out. Feeling that it would be impolite to refuse, they let the complimentary bread and chips fill the baskets, sneak in a side potato with the main dish, and nibble on the dessert "just this one time." Stand up for yourself when you eat out—don't let the servers fill your plate or table with anything that might tempt you. Ask politely that they remove any breads or chips. Don't be embarrassed—this is your life and their jobs, which is more important to you?

Maintaining a healthy, exciting low carb diet is not only possible, it's important. Believe in yourself and your health and you'll have no problem keeping on the down low.
