Taken some organising and the right frame of mind - Its not the most appetizing way of eating having just had to pass on a nice juicy leg of lamb and have a steak instead, but by 900 cals at "high noon" i feel like i ve been let loose on an entire buffet as my stomach has that too full feeling that doesnt go away the rest of the day...

Yes, that might be a benefit when sticking to a strict diet, but when you re non too keen on egg, none too keen on a tablespoon of olive oil in a shake and you think brocolli is a treat instead of spinach - It seems like a high price to pay at the moment even if it is something i find easier to stick to as its now so simple...

You ve got balls of steel you low carb dieters !!!!!!!!!

    Why would you pass on lamb and have steak? Lamb has loads of proteins and fats, which is just what low-carbers want isn't it?

    it took some doing !!

    but the reason is, lamb has 450 cals while the steak has 165 and it would have taken me way over cals and fat intake... She didnt tell me they were having lamb or i d have knocked the oil out of the shakes and had lamb instead !

    going to have some cold tomorrow ...

    Why are you limiting yourself to 900 cal per day? Brain activity alone, in most people, accounts for 400 to 500 cal per day...........

    i m not limiting to 900 but i m saying by mid day i'm full and bloated and stay that way the rest of the day never hungry by next meal time... diary is exactly what i m eating to stay below 20g of carbs and keep protein and fat very high.
