I'm suppose to follow the Canada food guide which is 7 servings of grain a day. how can I cut carbs? I'm very bad at this

French fries are not a grain you could lose those, and bran muffins are usually high in sugar and fat, also 1 cup of rice is a lot in one meal.  These are items that you could lose to cut carbs.

ok will cut back on rice, I made the muffins homemade they aren't too bad and same with the "French fries" are actually a potato with 1tbsp oil baked. do you think i should include my recipes of how I made things?

could you give me an idea of what I should be eating instead? I'm really trying but it's so hard as I'm sure you know. just seems like all they really talk about is eating after surgery but not how to prepare for approval.

Is your BMI still 39?  You said previously in March I believe that they wanted you to lose 20lbs.  Were you able to do that?  Hope this helps.
