I try really hard to keep my carbs under 30, no breads, pastas nothing with sugar added. I've even cut out fruit I mostly eat meat and veggies. All my carbs come from the veggies. I do eat things with fat, but instead of beef I use turkey and I've switched to turkey bacon. Not gonna lie when my hubby makes bacon I have a bite of his. I try to make the majority of what I eat protein. The first 5 days of my diet was strictly protein and ROUGH. I'm really just trying to eat clean. Every once in awhile I while have some cheese but I try to keep that in check. Of course my favorite foods are BREAD and CHEESE lol but I'm loving the weight loss so the lack of burgers and pizza are worth it. I should also mention that I'm doing my diet under medical supervision.
