Have a hug.
firstly, you don’t have to eat fat if you find it unappetising and greasy. Just eat to your appetite and stop when you don’t. Please don’t fall for the you MUST inhale fat, because that simply isn’t true.
if you want to get it down to the simplest level, then eat ‘normal’ protein, low carb, and enough fat to satisfy. Let your meter guide you. That gives you a huge scope of veg and salads and sauces and dressings. After I clamped down and went v low carb, I got sooo bored. I think it was a sign that I was resenting the change and feeling hard done by. I am such a sucker for New and Exciting and NOT the same every day. I mean, nowadays I need to be carnivore. That is pretty restrictive. I have to shake it up every now and then. Just for variety. I could never eat steak twice a day, every day, so I have curries and pickled herring and cheeses and roasts and stews and soups and scrambled egg with smoked salmon and cheesy mince and Moo Grob and endlessly varied ribs, duck, chicken, turkey, beef, pork, lamb, goat, heart, liver, kidney, salmon, herring, bassa, cod, kippers, sole, prawns, butter and garlic, herbs, spices (and chocolate
). The variety is much greater than you might think. If I had veg in there too, The only limit would be my imagination and howmuch effort I would put into cooking.
Have you discovered low carb mug cakes? They make up for a heck of a lot of carby donuts.
it is INCREDIBLY hard to stop judging people for eating stuff that you can’t. It may be impossible. It is frustrating to see them tucking into stuff that would send your bg into the stratosphere. But... what works for them clearly doesn’t work for you. Your body is different. Your metabolism is different. You need to find a way that works for
you.
