If you are one of those people who absolutely, positively cannot stop eating carbohydrates, a special carb-addict
version of Every Other Day Dieting will work for you. One day you eat protein and fat, and other day you eat
carbs. On your protein and fat day, limit your calories to 1200-1500. The easy way to do this is unlimited
veggies (except peas, potatoes and corn) and 200 calorie portions of whatever dead animule works for you.
200 calories is 1 burger without the bun, 1 chicken breast, 1 piece of fish the size of a burger, 1 small chile, etc.
On your carb days, limit your calories to 500-600 of the carbs you love. The easy way to do this is 6 pieces of
fruit (2 apples, 2 oranges, 2 bananas) or 6-12 slices of bread (depending if it’s 50 or 100 calories per slice), or 6
– 100 calorie yogurts. Lots of patients vary their carb days, one day eating fruit, the next carb day eating bread,
and the next carb day eating yogurt. You’ll lose 3-5 pounds a week, and you can have your carbs.
