It's good that you want to eat healthy, but as to the low fat/low carbs thing, i say:
BRRT.
If you want to be healthy/get in shape you CAN NOT CUT ANYTHING OUT OF YOUR DIET. it'll just lead to failure.
Your body needs fat because it is a macromolecule that is the basis for making a shit load of hormones in our body like oestrogen and GOOD cholesterol, just get things that are low saturated and trans fat, all other types are good for you. PLUS a diet with 30g of fat a day is considered low fat.
As for carbohydrates, you need a decent amount of carbohydrates so your body has the energy to function properly. The less you eat, the slower your metabolism becomes and your body will store fat easier.
PEOPLE NEED TO UNDERSTAND THAT YOU NEED TO EAT TO LOSE WEIGHT/GET IN SHAPE
I'm very healthy, i'm slender (168cm, 56kg and only like 7kg of body fat)
Here's what i eat in a day:
Breakfast: bowl of sultana bran with full cream milk, 3 poached eggs on 2 pieces of wholemeal toast, glass of juice (oh my god, full cream milk AND egg yolks :O)
like 2-3 apples, a sandwich(usually tuna, lettuce, avocado, tomato, cucumber) glass of milo, glass of coke, a few spoon fulls of peanut butter, banana (omg more carbs), 2-3 protein shakes with full cream milk again :O dinner'll be like chicken and rice or something and i'll usually have a small bowl of ice cream after dinner.
I'm sorry for ranting, but I wish people who wanted to get in shape would get educated on the topic and not just cut out carbs/fat. This is how you mess up your body.
buy:
-eggs (poach these)
-wholemeal bread
-avocado (good fats)
-peanut butter (good fats)
-tuna
-apples
-bananas(cut them up and freeze them, omg, it's so good)
-cereal
-chicken (i recommend making tandoori chicken, you can have it with rice/in wraps with salad)
-something sweet(i can't stress this enough, the key is moderation, not cutting anything out. have somehting each day and it'll stop you from bingeing. Promise.)
the end.
p.s. don't forget to exercise. resistance training and cardio together are key. the more muscle you have, the faster your metabolism is and don't worry, girls don't have enough testosterone to get big muscles like guys.)
finally, the end.
