Veggie and low carb??
well, i can;t say that I am on a "diet'perse, but around mid december i
decided to get my eating under control and to eat what i know are healthy
foods...and since I love veggies and fruit, finding things to eat was not a
problem.....i did however end up eating a low calorie low carb diet(and
almost no fat)by default and lost a decent amount(for me) of weight. The
problem for me was getting enough protein, and I have been able to fix that
in several ways. Although I am not a strict vegetarian, eating meat is not a
priority for me and it was tough getting enough protein without loading up
on cheese.which i also love....I have started adding rice and beans, rice
and legumes, legumes and grains to my diet, but not in large prtions....this
helps keep the total carbs down, while giving me the protein I need. I think
my eating habits will underrgo a few changes as time goes on, but eating
large amounts of delicious veggie stews seems to work for me.
hope this helps in some way...LG.
