[QUOTE="Resurgam, post: 2094478, member: 355878"] Ah - vegetarians are unfortunately high carb consumers - as an omnivore I have far more choices for low carb foods. I do eat a lot of salad stuff, and low carb veges - bean sprouts are OK but most beans raise my glucose levels to high. I have found that there are a few breads which have only 4 gm of carbs per - admittedly small slice, one is from Asda, a protein bread which looks like a brown brick and the other from Waitrose which is Livlife. Avocado seems OK, but pricey, lets think - broccoli, cauliflower, chicory, chard, courgette cucumber celery celeriac, dandelion, endive, radish, beetroot, mushrooms, cabbage, - I usually set a limit of 10 percent by weight of a food - except chocolate, as I just get the highest cocoa one possible or go without. If you eat eggs, cheese or other diary then you have a lot more choices - I make a dessert with sugar free jelly and yoghurt - sometimes I use the zero carb soy yoghurt by Alpro, and frozen fruit so as to spread out the fruit for three days which I could easily eat in one.
