[QUOTE="TriciaWs, post: 2183578, member: 475901"] I have been low carbing for 18 months now, and am in remission. I still try to keep below 110g a day Eating out At first I found eating out very tough but I am much firmer with staff and friends now while trying to be helpful: if there is nothing suitable I will open up sandwiches and eat the contents, leaving the bread, I've even used a teaspoon to eat part of the filling of a quiche! I will take my own snack food - originally cheesy 'egg muffins'*, now I sometimes take peanut or almond butter nut balls in a small tub. or the small packets of peanut butter, mini packs of cheese, etc. if travelling for longer, ie too long to keep eggs etc out of a fridge, I pack nuts and 85% chocolate, if you like beef jerky that travels well If dining at friends' homes I take some cauliflower rice, or a raspberry & cream based dessert to share. Or a low carb almond/coconut flour cake. I ask for extra veg or a salad instead of the carbs in restaurants, they are usually happy to do this. I've also ordered a burger without the bun without raised eyebrows. *eggy muffins - 2 eggs to a spoon of cream, beaten up with black pepper. put a little grated cheese into a bun tin (I use about 15-20g per two eggs) pour the egg mix over (about 3/4 full), bake at 180 for 12-14 mins until just slightly wobbly. Cool, store in fridge for up to two days. Pack with mini cucumbers or lettuce. [/QUOTE]
