When trying to lose weight, it's not always best to focus on calories or carbohydrates.<br />

Eating something healthy, such as fruit, when you're craving something sweet,<br />

instead of having ice cream or soda, is one of many ways to start changing your habits.<br />

It’s okay to crave foods that aren't healthy. Make sure you don’t starve yourself of the<br />

occasional guilty pleasure, such as white bread or some ice cream now and again.<br />

Moderation can be a helpful tool as well. Constantly being worried about what you are<br />

eating or the amount of carbohydrates in food can cause foods to stop being<br />

enjoyable and lead to post meal guilt, which is not fun at all. Just remember that there<br />

are healthy options and ways to eat well and lose weight without going on a crazy diet.<br />

Keep in mind that there are different types of carbohydrates that are better for you<br />

than others. Listen to your body's needs and enjoy the occasional guilty pleasure.<br />
