[QUOTE="Alexandra100, post: 1883272, member: 429870"] If you drastically lower carbs, you will need to replace the banished calories with something. The other 2 macro-nutrients are fat and protein. Keto diets where one eats a huge proportion of fat, not so much protein and minimal carbs are very fashionable at present even for the non-diabetic. However if you look at the signatures under people's avatars on this Forum you will see that many of us choose rather to eat low carb but with moderate protein and fat. It's a big controversial subject. This is just to say that you don't have to force yourself to eat fatty things you don't fancy or feel may not be healthy. Personally, I don't eat eg bacon, but many here love it. The great first thing is not inadvertently to starve yourself when you cut carbs. Personally again I have about doubled my protein intake while also increasing my fat intake, but not to keto levels. [/QUOTE]
