<br>WEEKLY WEIGH-IN 
<br>
<br>Seems like there are a gazillion diet rumors out there. HG's here to debunk a 
<br>few of 'em... 
<br> 
<br>Rumor: Carbs make you fat.
<br>
<br>The Real Deal: Oh, stop the carb-bashing already, people! Eating carbs 
<br>doesn't make you gain weight, eating excessive calories does. However, 
<br>carbs can often be high in calories due to lots of sugars and fats. Processed 
<br>carb-heavy foods like regular pasta, junk food, and white bread tend to have 
<br>the highest calories. Keep those to a limit. Fruits and veggies have carbs 
<br>(natural sugars) yet are low in calories. High-fiber foods with complex carbs, 
<br>like whole grains, potatoes and beans, are a good source of energy your 
<br>body needs. Just pay attention to the calories in the carb-y food you chew 
<br>on, and you should be fine!
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>Rumor: Guzzling gallons of water = instant weight loss.
<br>
<br>The Real Deal: Uhhh...not quite. If your water intake is replacing high-calorie 
<br>drinks like juice and soda, then you'll likely see results. But that's because 
<br>you'd be cutting back on your calorie intake. Water alone won't flush fat from 
<br>your system or wash away excess weight. It can, however, eliminate hunger 
<br>pangs and make you feel fuller. And eating less does equal weight loss. Also, 
<br>keeping your body hydrated keeps your energy up. So take that energy and 
<br>use it to fuel a workout! But too much water (as in gallons and gallons) will 
<br>just you leave you bloated and uncomfortable.
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>Rumor: Going vegetarian is the secret to losing weight.
<br>
<br>The Real Deal: Oh, please! A vegetarian diet has pros and cons when it 
<br>comes to weight loss. Some vegetarian products (like imitation bacon and 
<br>burger patties) are lower in fat and calories than their meaty counterparts. 
<br>Making these swaps can be good for weight loss. However, eliminating meat 
<br>from your diet alone won't cause your weight to drop. High-calorie fattening 
<br>foods like pizza, pasta dishes, cakes and candy aren't off-limits on a 
<br>vegetarian diet. And often, limiting your options can make it harder to find 
<br>diet-friendly choices when eating out. Whether you go veggie or not, it's 
<br>important to eat plenty of filling protein and avoid eating too many high-
<br>calorie, fat-heavy foods. 
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>Rumor: Cut out dairy -- it's all fattening and high in calories.
<br>
<br>The Real Deal: Nope! While full-fat dairy can be a bad idea for scale-
<br>watchers (limit your intake of this stuff), low-calorie, low-fat and even fat-
<br>free options can be a dieter's best friend!  Look for light versions of cottage 
<br>cheese, yogurt (frozen and regular!), cheese, sour cream, eggs (fat-free egg 
<br>substitute or egg whites), cream cheese, milk and more. Curious about which 
<br>light cheeses are chew-worthy? Check out our cheese reviews coming up 
<br>tomorrow!
