Let the swordfish sit in the cold water until it is thawed, about one to two hours. Change the water every so often to speed up the thawing process. Alternately, you can continuously run cold water into the bowl for an even quicker thaw.
The consistent carbohydrate meal plan can help stabilize your carbohydrate intake by creating uniformity. The goal is for the amount of carbohydrates you eat each day and at each meal to remain the same. In this sense, the consistent carbohydrate diet is a carb-counting program. It differs from the exchange plan because you keep track of just carbohydrates instead of all food groups.
The Atkins Diet is a popular low-carbohydrate eating plan created in 1972 by cardiologist Robert C. Atkins. The Atkins Diet restricts carbs (carbohydrates) while emphasizing protein and fats. The Atkins Diet has several phases for weight loss and maintenance, starting out with a very low carbohydrate eating plan. The Atkins Diet, formally called the Atkins Nutritional Approach, has been detailed in many books and is credited with launching the low-carb diet trend.
