That is indeed what I meant. And I personally find it really hard to watch people eating pasta, rice, bread, potatoes etc. without joining in. They are calling to me.
why? Fat isn’t the issue unless you mean sugar filled drinks
I never liked them much anyway so I hear nothing. I don’t think I ever ate a lot of carbs though compared to many in here.That is indeed what I meant. And I personally find it really hard to watch people eating pasta, rice, bread, potatoes etc. without joining in. They are calling to me.

Ah now cheese and dark chocolate I get. But they don’t do the damage the carbs do luckilyUnfortunately I love potatoes & fresh bread, especially if the bread is with good cheese! Chocolate - especially dark chocolate - speaks to me as well.
Thanks for that Ian I have been looking for plans but most are not free so I'm sure that just checking the amounts of carbs in foods is all I need to keep an eye on.
Do you know when checking carbs in foods is it just the amount that sugars you count?
Thanks
Don’t rely on my fitness pal either.No, it’s the figure for carbs, which will include sugars. My fitness pal works well for most things. Don’t rely on the sugars figure quoted on the front of any packet, as this doesn’t include other carbs.

Sorry if this question has been asked before but can anyone recommend where to find a free very low carb diet plan thats easy to follow?
Thanks in advance

Speaking from my own experience, I decided that I wouldn’t worry about the carbs from green veg, if minimise how much root veg I was eating, cut out potatoes and cut out all processed carbs…bread, pastry, pasta, rice. What was left was meat, dairy, salad stuff and green veg and the less sweet fruits. Eating like this for 3 months put me in remission and I eat very well. I.E a steak with creamy sauce, fried mushrooms and salad, roast chicken with all the veg except potatoes. There’s a really easy and very satisfying cheese sauce that is literally a knob of butter, some cream, heat it up till just under boiling point, as seasoning and grated cheese and stir. Tastes even better than a char sauce made with flour!
I did the same a couple of years ago but stuck to keto (20g of carbs a day) and lost 2.5 stone in 3 months!@Hezzal, did you lose weight eating this way?
