[QUOTE="Yogamommy5, post: 1416336, member: 377828"] I love meat, cheese eggs and I like salad which is what this ends up coming down to. I do miss Mexican, and potatoes. I feel stifled knowing that my diet is down to the meat group, fats and above-the-ground vegetables. If every single meal is just based on that and the fact that I have to restrict protein to the usual small amount per day which I understand is like two decks of cards of meat then the rest is just a bunch of salad and fat. You even have to restrict cheese and nuts. And fruit is restricted to just berries. This leaves me eating salad whenever we are out. I'm not that much of a salad fan especially in the winter. I like it sometimes, but other times it just gives me this kind of cold lonely feeling in my stomach which sounds crazy but that's how I feel. I'm cooking all kinds of stuff soups, turnips cauliflower this and that, zucchini noodles. I hate cauliflower and turnip and don't care for zucchini but I'm eating it all instead of potatoes. If the diet allowed potatoes fruit and legumes I'd be totally happy. I'm happy to give up sugar and Grains but the rest is really really hard. Let's say there was unlimited cheese and nuts and berries maybe that would be okay. But stuffing myself on salad, zucchini or cauliflower and turnips is not my idea of a good time. I'm also finding all this food prep while I'm dealing with bipolar depression extremely hard. Sorry for the rant, I'm having PMS which makes Cravings really hard. [emoji29] [/QUOTE]
