Also on a low-carb diet?

Options
I'm looking to find friends that are also on a low carb diet. I'm wanting to trade recipes and tricks and tips to stick with it. :)

    I'm also trying to do a low carb diet and trying to make the carbs I do eat as healthy as possible. It's easy to slip up or lose track bc it seems like EVERYTHING has carbs but this helped me http://dailyinfographic.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/good-carb-vs-bad-carbs.gif

    for low carb I try to stay away from white foods (pasta, potatoes, breads, etc) and when I do have pasta I do whole wheat and do a small amount of pasta with a large amount of veggies.

    i also cut out soda and one thing I do to help with those cravings is I get Vintage Seltzer Raspberry in a can and add MiO Liquid water enhancers to it or lime juice - carbonation without the sugar and all the other crap. (just don't add too much water flavor enhancer or it tastes bad)

    Also I've gotten a lot of good recipes off of this site..... http://undressedskeleton.tumblr.com/

    Hey..
    Feel free to add me! You can see by my diary Im currently doing quite badly on getting to lower carb but Im trying to change that! Most of my carbs come from fruit and veg usually and I try to get a gram of protein per gram of lean body weight..

    Also handy to have similar friends with similar goals!

    This is something I'm really quite clueless about, I just seem to go on carb overload, anyone out there with similar habits or any advice please feel free to add, thanks!
