If you eat a low carb diet with only meat, vegetables and fruit in it, you can eat raw veggies and fruits and simply buy a weight watchers or healthy options, microwave it take the meat out and eat the meat with your own veggies and fruits.

If your like me, when I go home, I'll be on low carb with clean breads, whole wheats, baked potatoes, and breads from corn.

So what I am going to do is this.

I can get canned vegan refried beans or black beans put them in a whole wheat tortilla, salsa, some grilled chicken strips that are already prepared from the deli section, microwave it have a burrito.

They also have already prepared potato salad at Krogers, I could microwave the already prepared roast beef the potato salad is chunky a little undone, so it is a clean bread, that's a meals.

I could get frozen ground beef whole wheat bun and make it into a cheese burger, there's also canned chicken and fish. Lots of stuff, but this way, you can have your clean carbs in a microwavable meal, Weight Watchers doesn't have healthy carbs.

    I won't be. Bu this is just something I'm planning for when I go home. I'm in a nursing home. But according to Body For Life 2 or 3 healthy breads a day is normal.So I wouldn't be counting carbs anyway.

    Are you trying to gain weight, lose weight, or trying to eat in what you perceive to be a healthier manner?
