After basically no carb meals. Well the lowest carb anyway.

Eggs(you can cook them up so many ways, and make boiled eggs for when you feel snacky), meats, vegetables like brocolli, spagetti squash, squash (for pasta replacement) also shirataki noodles very low carbs, zucchini, cauliflower, okra, spinach,pickles. There's so many good meals you can eat as a low carber.

I like making really good salads for lunch (& pack a good salad dressing on the side). One of my favorites is a Cobb Salad -- top your favorite greens with sliced cooked chicken breast, sliced avocado, crumbled blue cheese, chopped tomatoes, chopped cucumber, 1 piece crispy crumbled bacon -- sometimes I use turkey bacon to lighten it up).

Here is link for a recipe my family enjoys:

Pork Medallions with Mustard Caper Sauce (you could substitute chicken if you wanted to, but this is sooooo delicious) http://www.simplyrecipes.com/recipes/pork_medallions_with_mustard-caper_sauce/

One final tip is to try out shirataki noodles. They are virtually carb free and really low in calories. They have the texture of ramen noodles -- you just have to make sure you REALLY rinse them thoroughly and then heat them in a pan over low heat to pull out some of the moisture. They really don't taste like anything so the absorb the flavor of whatever sauce you put on them. I've used them as a base for beef, chicken, pork and or veggie stir-fry. I've also topped them with a marinara and meatballs or I've topped them with shrimp scampi.

Last time I lost weight I did so by cutting out carbs. I.e bread, cereal anything with carbs. But a piece of chicken gets really boring really quickly. Can anyone help with tasty low and I mean low carb meals please?

Tonight I'm having a turkey patty or you can make turkey meatballs. I take ground turkey, season to your taste and bake at 400 degrees for like 12 minutes. I make a whole pound and freeze and then take to work and heat up in microwave. But tonight I'm having them with sweet potato baked fries. That way it's like burger and fries to take away that craving. Also turkey soup or chicken soup with veggies.

In any diet in order to lower blood sugar and blood pressure you should add this food to your diet. This is a dip very popular in Yemeni dishes. You will need
ground fenugreek for this recipe. Be careful one tblsp of ground
fenugreek goes a long way.

Step 1: soak one tblsp of ground fenugreek in water, preferrably
over night. Why? It gets rid of the bitterness of the fenugreek
and that’s how our mother’s taught us to make it.



Step 2: After you have left it to soak overnight –throw away the
water and take the fenugreek paste (yes it has turned into a
paste like mixture) and place in a blender.

Step 3: Add one tomato (preferably still a little hard–not ripe and
mushy), a clove of garlic, 3 tblsp of cilantro chopped, 1 green
chilly (or less if you like), juice of one whole lemon, salt to taste.

Step 4: blend until it is a frothy consistency.

Step 5: Pour into a bowl and serve with bread. If it is too thick,
thin with more lemon. Some use vinegar.

Here are two of my favorites:
Saute shrimp in butter with garlic. Meanwhile steam broccoli. Put shrimp on top of the broccoli and drizzle the garlic butter.

Tonight's dinner was steamed cauliflower and broccoli with seasoned and fried chicken. Lightly mix Ragu Classic Alfredo sauce with the chicken and vegetables.

When I make a stir fry I serve it over bean sprouts instead of noodles or rice. Great texture and good for cutting though the flavour of the sauce.
