[QUOTE="tk123, post: 1683188, member: 468360"] I am Canadian, and diabetes doctors/dieticians/nutritionists here still push fruit and brown carbs sadly. My regular doctor is on par with low carb and approves but will not give food advice other than that. We eat salads a lot; so greens, usually a baby romaine mix, with cucumber, tomato, peppers, cheese, sometimes avocado, dressing and Whisps, which are a 100% parm cheese cracker. We usually have some sort of meat on it too, either chicken, ground meat with taco seasoning, or deli meats. I, sadly, cannot eat a lot of foods, so any cooked leafy greens (cabbage, spinach, kale) are out, as is fish. I really dislike plain yogurts and avocado unless it's in a salad or guac and chips (which is now a no) I tend to eat salad foods (including carrots some times), or cooked green beans, broccoli. I enjoy roasted cauliflower as well. Im worried about not getting enough fat, as they suggest 80% intake be fat. But Im also just not very hungry after cutting our sugar and carbs. I wasnt very carb heavy eater before, as they always upset my tummy so it wasnt a hard thing to do. But now Im just... Not hungry anymore, and I know fasting is fine to do, but again, worried about the content when I do eat too. But I'll try and shift from snacking to meals instead. [/QUOTE]
