You should not give up carbs all together because they are the body's main source of energy. Instead switch to whole grain breads and pastas and limit yourself to one meal a day of that type of food. Whole grains and complex carbs will fill you up faster and keep you full and with energy longer than processed starches.

The United States Department of Agriculture suggests that approximately 50% of your calories come from carbohydrates, about 30% from fats, and approximately 20% from protein sources.

Moderation and a balanced diet is the key.
