I've been trying to reduce my carbs as much as possible for the last couple of weeks, but am a little concerned that I may not be getting all the nutrition I need from my diet
I really don't like eating cooked green veg, dunno why but I just can't eat it without feeling nauseas, in the past I always felt I made up for that by eating loads of fruit, forget 5 a day, I was on a 10+ day habit
Looking at my food diary for the last 2 weeks, I see I am now eating the following
cooked - mushrooms, carrot, onion, processed peas (bigga peas)
raw - Lettuce, cucumber, tomatoes, onion, strawberries, raspberries, picked onions, pickled cauliflower
also eating small amounts of peanuts and walnuts as snacks
Yes I know some of that list is not exactly really low carb, but I've got to eat something!!!
On the protein side of things I think I'm OK, I'm eating plenty, although the wife looked on in despair when I grilled a sirloin steak for breakfast! I'm eating plenty of beef, pork,bacon, chicken, cod, and lamb as well as 2-3 eggs a day
Is this a wide enough selection to ensure I'm getting all the nutrients I need to stay healthy in the longer term?
