It’s not hard to limit grain carbs in meals. Plan your meals around protein. Grass fed beef, free range poultry. Then add veggies, cooked, and salads, and sweet or even white potatoes (if no weight problem) sometimes. Dessert is fresh fruit and a little dark chocolate.

It’d easy at restaurants, though the meat will be cheap and suspect, but it’s still easy to eat well without grains — skip all buns and breads, rice, pasta.

What is difficult is eating this way at fairs or other peoples picnics where you have no choice. Bring your own snacks like beef jerky and Larabars.

When I go places like picnics and fairs, I eat what I like. I don't try to completely limit carbs from my diet, or I wouldn't drink beer.

But I do eat more foods that I prepare from scratch (think killing chickens and pigs, and grinding wheat).

“...free range poultry”

Every time I read about “free range poultry” I have a good laugh.

In Panama, “free range poultry” are those chickens that live in the yard. One feeds them some grains in the morning and some in the evening before they climb up a tree to perch away from the possums. The rest of the day they spend their time running after bugs in the yard.

And in the States, this crap sells 3x more (in Panama anyway) than just regular chickens.
