Well you certainly have a challenge.
The meal list you posted is really bad carb wise.
Quorn can be up to 25% carb too depending on what it's pretending to be.
Red/white lentils is a pointless difference. Like spilling red or white paint. Effect is the same.
Swapping the rice out for cauliflower or brocoli rice could be a start. Add a lot more nuts into the diet.
I understand double cooking spuds and rice can lower their carb effect too.
There are options. Adding peanut and almond flour to foods will boost protein and flavor.
Peanut butter is great for sweetening meals. It's mostly fat and protein too. I buy kilo pots and it barely lasts a fortnight.
All said. We're here. To help.
Even if you just want to moan.
I'm in the meat camp too. In fact I could dump veg and go full carnivore love the stuff, if it wasn't for the family.
Slimming world may need to be tempered slightly. My parents are SW devotees and cannot understand, (while they accept) what I eat.
