30-Day Low-Carb Meal Plan, Created by a Dietitian

Carbohydrates have been villainized for their alleged contribution to weight gain. Some research, as outlined in a 2023 StatPearls article, suggests that a very low-carb diet can be effective initially for weight loss. However, the article also points out that after a year or so, all types of diets, including low-carb and low-fat, produce similar rates of weight loss.

There are differing opinions regarding how many carbs are in a low-carb diet, but the truth is you don't have to go as low as the keto and Whole30 diets suggest to get weight loss benefits. One reason eating fewer carbohydrates can be effective is that it often leads to a reduction in overall calorie intake.

When you cut higher-carb foods from your diet—like whole grains, legumes, certain fruits and starchy vegetables—you also end up cutting fiber, as those carb-containing foods provide the majority of fiber in the diet. Since fiber helps keep you feeling full and satisfied after meals, you want to be sure you're still getting enough each day.

Carbohydrate-rich foods provide a lot of important nutrients, some of which are difficult to get from other foods. With that in mind, we designed this meal plan with a moderate amount of carbs to ensure you still get these essential nutrients. You'll find a variety of carb-containing foods in this plan—like fruit, Greek yogurt and beans—along with low-carb foods—like lean protein and healthy fats—that together create an easy-to-follow 30-day balanced meal plan.

Whether you follow this meal plan exactly as it's laid out or simply use it as an inspirational guide for following a healthy low-carb diet, we're sure you'll find it helpful. Couple this healthy meal plan with regular exercise, and you're on track to lose a healthy 1 to 2 pounds per week.
