I have to admit I now look at meals differently. The food I used to eat was killing me and the food I now eat isn't! Even if it does get a bit boring, it's allowing me to get rid of my excess weight by not eating carbs and forcing my body to use up the fat stored all around me. If I start to fixate on what I can't eat, I have an apple then look in the mirror. The face looking back at me usually tells me to zip it and get real. I got too big a fright when I realised I could die young, or worse, I could end up getting limbs removed and be buried in installments.
Having said all that, there are literally thousands of low carb recipes that hail from the land of the giant asses, namely the USA. Yes it takes a bit of work to print them off then buy the ingredients etc. but the meals are superb and very very low carb! Makes me wonder why they are all so bloody huge over there...
