Recipe balancing is the process of creating recipes that have proportional amounts of carbohydrates, fats and proteins. This is an important process in achieving balanced nutrition.
Count your carbohydrates rather than your calories to help you keep your blood sugar under control. You should have four servings of carbohydrates at each meal and two servings every time you have a snack. Count each 15 grams of carbohydrates in a food item as a serving of carbohydrates. You can get the carbohydrate count of any food item by reading the information on the item's nutritional label. This diet method allows you to eat whatever foods you enjoy while keeping your blood sugar from getting too high or too low.
Average = Total/Count so Total = Average*Count.
Simply stay away from ALL GRAINS and you will not have to count calories. Your body will reprogram itself and you will only eat what your body requires. You will automatically burn off the fat. This does not mean to avoid carbohydrates just limit total daily intake of no more than 100-150 grams of total carbohydrates.
