[QUOTE="Antechinus, post: 1985603, member: 493842"] Hi Patrick. I kind of know what you mean. I've been doing the low carb diet and have found it to be more expensive. The local supermarket has a very limited range of low carb anything. The only LCHF snack I can find is sliced cheese. Even beef jerky is low fat. What the hell! Its even more expensive at the farmer market, but the veg tastes so much better, so I think the supermarket veg and meat has lost its flavor in the factory production processes used nowadays. No answers there other than I can commiserate. I have lost weight, about 4 inches on my belt, and all my clothes hang, but I dont care. It's a reminder that I'm winning the battle. Recipes with exotic unobtainable over priced ingredients get me too. I often substitue or leave them out. All I can do as I live in a rural town that thinks MacDonalds is fine cuisine. So many things are unavailable or crazy priced; let em go and use something else. Maybe grow your own, we do that for Tuscan kale as I dont like regular kale. The diet gets frustrating and I suppose it can get you down. But I read your posts and I see that your winning and getting closer to your target weight. Try and let the lows pass you by and the highs pump you up. Sometimes its just a matter of deciding not to get upset about something that saves a day and lets you move on. [/QUOTE]
