RIO Fitness Chicago® Tip:

Will cutting carbs totally out help you "lose weight?" Only temporarily, because 1g of carb carries 4oz of water; so the weight you're losing is water weight NOT body fat. Once you start consuming carbs again, you'll gain the weight back. Instead, eat bread/pasta/rice/oat carbs ONLY after exercise. No exercise = you don't eat them. Earn them! Fruits/veggies are the only carbs ok to eat all day long.
