Avoid White Bread, Rice, and Pasta

Do It Right: Eat 170 grams of carbs each day as recommended and make sure at least half come from whole grains. Then measure out a serving of refined carbs, such as a cup of cooked white pasta and dig in guilt-free. If a single cup isn't gonna do it for you, pair your pasta with filling protein, like a meaty red sauce made with lean chicken or beef.
