    Yogurt, cottage cheese, fruit, trail mix...
    Is there a reason you're cutting out carbs? In moderation, there's nothing wrong with them! Weight loss is all about caloric deficit.

    Only one word: BACON!!

    Seriously though, cheese is a good option too.. non-sweetened yogurt (very low carb).. I'm sure there is more but those would be my favourites.

    Go by the structure set up of MFP and exercise. You will find you do not need to cut out carbs. If you want lasting weight loss then it has got to be thought of as healthy eating changes. Otherwise you will gain it all back and then some. I have been on every diet in this world. For years I have been told this. Now I am living the advice and I feel happier and healthier then I ever have in my adult life. Trust me I was the laziest person I knew and hated exercise. Now I crave it and need it for the balance and the endorphins it releases in my brain makes me feel so much better and energized! :smile:

    Cheese is crazy high in fat, though. (unless you all have special low-fat cheese or something, I guess!)

    I have a smoothie made of unsweetened almond milk, non fat greek yogurt, 4 frozen strawberries, 1/4 cup of blueberries. I know this has carbs in it but it has more protein than carbs. You want to have your carbs in the morning anyways. Save the "no carb meals" for lter in the day.

    I'm not worried about that. If you stay within your calorie goals you'll still lose weight. And you need fat in your day.

    look up for 'FAT FLUSH DIET" - you will find everything you need to know there. Good luck.


    Protein powder - add strawberies and water and blend:)

    If you go "hard core" Atkins, breakfast pretty much sucks except for eggs with veggies ... unless, of course, you're willing to fill up on meat for breakfast. I've done Atkins. I lost weight/size. I hated Atkins ... therefore I gained the weight and size back. Carbs are not evil. Fruit is not evil. There are plenty of ways to keep your carbs low if that's the route you choose, but getting rid of them altogether is not necessary (my opinion of course).

    I do, however, wish you the best of luck if you decide to stick with it!

    Exactly. Fat is good for you.Your body needs it for several functions. An essential macro

    Eggs, meat, fish, shellfish, poultry, bacon, cottage cheese. Vegetables and fruit do have carbs, but are important (in moderation) in our diets. Beans like refried beans and lentils are good sources of protein and lower in carbs then some others I believe.
