The very man, Andy, you need a cut and paste of your day's menu, as it's always a good guide to new posters.
Any chance you could oblige with a typical day again?
Thanks.
The Fage I buy is NOT fat free at all but you knew that anyway eh?
its all out there mate, its boring
tbh, the 0% came up on google, but I would say the 5g fat, 3.8g carbs classic now I looked again?
Alpro is 2.3g fat, 2.1g carbs, so lower carb, lower fat though.
dont cook in olive oil, eat it cold, it turns into a trans fat when heated up
Olive oil for cooking-extra virgin olive oil for dressings and dipping.For every report of that, I've never seen any theory behind it, so I still cook with it.
Best way is to ask regular low carbers to post up a typical days meal. A lot of the regulars will, or have a search though some of the recipes. LCHF suggests you need to add fat to all the cooking, but it's actually comparative, because a normal western diet tends to have a majority of carbs, and less fat, when you decrease the carbs, it's replaced with fat, but usually still around the normal calorie intake for the day. Fat has about twice the calories carbs have g for g.
Not that I'm saying you need to count, just that you don't need to load everything with fat.
Indeed, one of the claims is fat makes you feel full quicker, so you actually eat less anyway.
Also the type of fat you choose can vary, some like saturated fat, and eat cream and red meat. Others go for un saturated, cook in olive oil, eat fish etc.
You'll find a diet that suits you, but it's going to be a lifestyle change, so find one that you can work with.
Not sure how we got to this on a post about yogurt but Here's today's offering which is a fairly typical day in the badcat house although lunch would more usually be a salad of some variety
B - 2 low carb muffins ( made with ground almonds, eggs & raspberries
L - salmon sashimi, miso soup and vegetable tempura
D- whey protein, natural yogurt, and strawberries with some ground flaxseeds
S - 2 slices sukrin ( low carb) bread with 1 tbsp hummus and salad, another muffin, 10g 85% dark chocolate with chilli
