I have been trying to eat better and lose weight and excersize and have been doing pretty well with exception to those stupid cravings of Starbucks… Now I am craving pasta, however, I am REALLY trying NOT to eat unhealthy, so is there any pasta out there that is better for me?
Whole wheat pasta is much better for you – that way the carbs you’re eating are actually doing something good for your body.

Tammy has the right idea. thats wat i eat
Besides whole wheat pasta, you might try spinach pasta or corn pasta. Spinach pasta is usually whole wheat with spinach in it. Corn is good if you have wheat sensitivity.
Long grain organic brown rice pasta is the most healthy.
If you are craving pasta, you are probably cutting out more carbs than your body wants you to (e.g., Atkins diets). Eat a serving of it with some meat free red sauce and you have a healthy low fat meal. Just avoid cream sauces! They make whole wheat pastas, but I don’t think they are especially yummy.
Whole wheat pasta, and eat it earlier in the day….Lighter portions if you eat it at night…Good Luck….
I know you didn’t ask for a “program”, but here is one anyway. If you must eat pasta, your first answer is best.
Drink lots of water, walk an hour every day except 1 then do stretching and upper body toning.
No sugar
No sodas
No candy
No chips
No potatoes
No pasta
No pizza
no corn
no bread
no burgers
no fried foods
Good Luck
Hi! I’m not sure what part of the world you’re in, but I buy Barilla Plus. It has more protein in one serving than a chicken breast and it’s delicious. We are very health conscious and my husband is a body builder, but we are also Italian and it really satisfies our family. Here’s the link to their website. http://www.barillaus.com/PLUS_information.aspx
Yup, whole wheat is best but more importantly is what you put on or with it.
