Lose weight with the car diet
Having recently read some diet tips, I'd like to share my personal diet experience with you. I had tried the car diet. It has nothing to do with the fact that you should leave the car. Of course everything speaks for more movement? with or without diet.
Car is the abbreviation for carbohydrates, fats, snacks
The letters KFZ stand for carbohydrates, fats and snacks. The diet does not count calories. But it is seen that carbohydrates and fats are not together in a meal and a time interval of a few hours between the? K? and the? F? lie. For me that admittedly meant that I first had to learn what belongs to the carbohydrates except potatoes and where I have to expect the so-called hidden fats. But: everything is so bad!
Principle of the car diet
On the assumption that the carbohydrates are processed before the meal is consumed, for example, spaghetti (carbohydrate) with ham (fat) is not a good choice. The carbohydrates take a few hours to be consumed. Meanwhile, the fat from the ham is looking for a place in the fat store. If you grab a snack during this time, then the fat settles lazily because it is not used. And this is where the principle of the car diet comes in: it's not about avoiding fats altogether, but bringing them together with the carbohydrates as a dietary supplement.
Pay attention to good carbohydrates
If you can do it then avoid bad carbohydrates like sugar or white bread that will not saturate. Good carbohydrates are in whole grains, unpolished rice, semolina, potatoes or legumes such as beans, peas, lentils.
Food with fats
Animal fats are in fish, meat and sausage, butter, milk, cream, yogurt, cheese, or eggs. The vegetable fats you have in oil, tofu or in the avocado. All this means keeping away from the carbohydrates in the car diet. Hidden fats? You can find it in sauces, dressings, cakes or pies.
Possible supplements to the car diet
To me? just in the beginning? To facilitate this, I have pinned this list of possible side dishes for the fat or carbohydrate meal to the fridge. Of these saddlers you can eat as much as you want.

Pay attention to phases and time intervals
Now that you have a small overview of what is going on with each other and what is not, you still have to tune the rhythm of the K and F phases. In the morning you start with the carbohydrate phase. And they also have lunch again. In the evening you are then allowed to enter the fat phase. Before that, you should not have taken any carbohydrates for four hours, since fat burning only starts after that time. That means also for snacks in the afternoon, that you have something neutral? like carrots, kohlrabi, etc. After the F-meal in the evening, it is then also to renounce carbohydrates, and for six hours.
Now maybe you are still interested in how much I lost weight? For me it was five kilograms in ten weeks. I could keep that for two years until the job change. Unfortunately, I often have to go to the restaurant with business partners and do not always manage to separate carbohydrates and fats, so that two kilos have regained their place.
