Switching up your carbs for a few weeks can be a good idea — but carbs aren’t out here doing all the work alone. This isn’t a solo act, it’s a party — and what’s a party without a little movement on the dance floor? That’s right, you need exercise too.
Think of it like planning a great party: carbs are the guests, protein is the DJ, fat is the sound system and your attention to what you’re eating is the nosy neighbor watching through the blinds. On low-carb days, something else has to change — maybe you move more, maybe you cry a little. Who knows? But it all has to come together.
At the end of the day, it’s really just another sneaky way to get you to pay attention to what’s on your plate instead of just what’s on Netflix.
