Yes I intermittent fast (skipping breakfast) all the time. Only eat lunch and dinner sometimes only dinner.
As to what to eat .. anything that is low in carbs.. cheapest foodstuffs are probably eggs? Green veg. We tend to go for the cheaper cuts of meat which have a higher fat content. Beef mince for example the 15% fat is usually cheaper than leaner varieties at just over £5 per kilo, pork belly, chicken thighs. What kind of food do you like?
There's always cauliflower/broccoli rice or mash... brussels fried in butter with bacon bits are pretty **** good too.Everything that’s why I’m so big
It’s the accompaniments that are the problem I’m so used to having potato or rice or pasta that filling that void is hard.
I personally think it helps to do intermittent fasting. I do skip breakfast.Yes I intermittent fast (skipping breakfast) all the time. Only eat lunch and dinner sometimes only dinner.

Meant to say you have a great doctor..Having been told to follow a LCHF diet by the doctor
First time I’ve experienced going to the doctor and then being younger than me! He was very good in all fairness didn’t preach at me told me you know what you need to do. The first 2 weeks I was really good Keto all the way this last week I’ve been ill and carb binging can’t help myself taken the decision to get back on the horse tomorrow.Meant to say you have a great doctor..

Thanks for the advice problem is I don’t ever seem to be satisfied. I can eat a lot and worry about eating too much fat effecting me adversely in other waysStart with dietdoctor website.
To begin with feast on as much protein and natural fats as you can eat, once your body has got used to not having suger and carbs, you will want to eat less. Intermitant fasting can be added after a few weeks and is of benfit to most people, bit no suger and very low carbs gives the most benifit.
I’m back there in April if I haven’t made significant losses he may not be so forgiving!Whereabouts are you ? I want your doctor!
Its the fats in food that provide the satiety to stop you getting hungry. If you're worried about cholesterol levels most people report a lowering on LCHF and even if they go higher (similar to mine) then the ratios of various markers still improve.Thanks for the advice problem is I don’t ever seem to be satisfied.

Not really I just eat the meat and eggs and to a lesser extent veg. I've mainly stopped trying to make replacement foods like fake bread or cakes just don;t want to eat them any more. I view them as kind of like poison and am far more attached to my eyesight and toes. That's how I trained my mind not to want them any more.Do you make use the husk powders and almond flour to make things or stick to veg, meat and eggs?
Good thinking, I do suffer from lack of willpower at times and when I fall off the rails I really fall off the railsNot really I just eat the meat and eggs and to a lesser extent veg.
