7 carb recipes that will help you LOSE weight

All too often people who are trying to lose weight assume that all carbs are off the menu. This is not the case and The Healthy Mummy 28 Day Weight Loss Challenge makes sure their meals plans have a great balance of your favourite healthy carbs that will actually help with weight loss.

Eaten correctly, some carbs can actually help us shred and help give us energy and keep us fuller for longer.

7 carb recipes that will help you LOSE weight

Carbs have a high fibre content which means they help with weight loss and losing belly fat. They also are the number ONE source of energy producing foods, meaning we need them to function properly.

Try these 7 carb recipes from the 28 Day Weight Loss Challenge that are super popular in the Healthy Mummy Community. Not only are they delicious, but they will also actually help you lose weight!
