can you please explain the "save my carbs for one meal a day" as i have not read the book.


I believe the plan you are inquiring about is the Carbohydrate Addicts which was written by the Dr.s Eades, I believe.

The idea is to eat little to no carbs throughout the day and have one reward meal, preferrably at dinner that may contain carbs. Even dessert. The only catch is that it must be eten within one hour so as not to trigger an overpouring of insulin within your body.

This sounds great, however I must warn you that many people find that the carbs consumed in the reward meal trigger strong cravings for more carbs during other times during the day. This may cause a backslide for some people. Hope this helps.
