Hands down best low carb site around - http://www.genaw.com/lowcarb/

The linked site has a grocery list that’s an easy reference. Basically, just eliminate anything white in your diet (bread, flour, corn starch, rice, sugar, potatoes, pasta). Stick to meats and low carb veggies (no pinto type beans, corn, sweet potatoes, peas) and fruits (stick to berries). I’ve printed out most all her recipes into a 4” binder that’s bursting at the seams.

Just because beef is expensive doesn’t mean you have to buy steak. I do NOT. Pork and chicken are budget friendly. Turkey is can be found < $1/lb during the holidays.

I’ve been on and off LC since Atkins so if you have any questions, just ask.

They say cheese is fine but I don’t lose as much if I eat a lot of it. And I do love cheese daily. So, calories do play a factor even though they say they don’t.

If you can give up candy, full sugar soft drinks and potato chips, this diet pretty easy. Just go with substitutes for your yummy carbs.

Oh, thank you so much for the website and information!! I’ve tried low carb eating once or twice before, but I struggled with breakfast: I’m a devoted cereal eater and am not crazy about having much meat...and I can barely stomach eggs (occasionally scrambled; no other style). I’ll do my homework this time around and have some other options lined up in advance. Your information will definitely help. Thanks again!
