Make the Cut...  

Here’s another reason to put down that bagel!  If you eat few carbohydrates, you will torch more fat when you exercise!  In a study recently published in the European Journal of Applied Physiology, women who followed a low-carb diet (about 20% of their daily calories) for 48 hours burned significantly more fat during a treadmill session- and for 2 hours afterward- than those who ate a more moderate amount of grains, fruit and starches.  When your body’s resources are limited, it saves carbohydrates for vital functions and uses fat as fuel.
