Picking the right diet for losing arm flab can be extremely frustrating because there is so much marketing hype that the truth has become hidden amongst all the lies.
Have you been having a hard time finding a nutritional strategy that works?
If so, many other women are feeling your pain. I believe that proper nutrition for getting toned arms has become very confusing. Not too long ago, I was very confused myself.
So without further ado, here are 4 cons of high carbohydrate dieting for losing bingo wings:
1. Excess sugar intakes. This can be a very serious issue is you have a sugar addiction. After all, once you start having even a small amount of sugar it will be very hard to stop. Don’t forget that sugar triggers the same receptors as drugs.
2. Reduced insulin effectiveness. If your body gets too many carbs at once, it will become insulin resistant. This horrible state makes it hard for muscles to absorb nutrients. And if your muscles aren’t absorbing nutrients then your arm fat is.
3. Oscillating levels of hunger. If you eat a large amount of carbs you run the risk of taking your blood sugar for a roller coaster ride because carbohydrates have the biggest impact on blood sugar levels. The best way to counteract this is with an enormous vegetable intake.
4. Extremely slow fat loss. Expect extremely slow fat loss when doing a high carb diet. If you’re looking for lightening quick results, then this type of diet is NOT for you.
Now high carb diets can work for some women: those with fast metabolisms and no insulin resistance. How can you tell if you’re insulin resistant? Look at your stomach and if it’s disproportionately large compared to your other body parts, then you may be insulin resistant. Insulin resistance increase visceral fat, the fat that is around the organs in your stomach.
