    If you don't have one yet I would suggest a crock pot for long work days, especially during the winter. Any kind of chili is usually low carb and high protein- super easy to make in the crock pot, too.

    Here's a website with low carb recipes: peaceloveandlowcarb.com/2014/10/50lowcarbandpaleoslowcookerrecipes.html

    This is such an individual thing. You are fulfilling an emotional desire for creamy carby foods. There are lots of great substitutes that are pretty amazing. I am sure you can find something that makes you feel the craving is gone.
    I am partial to soups. I have a low calorie baked potato soup I make with cauliflower.

    I have low fat frozen yoghurt to nibble on for comfort food, only about 180 cals for a portion of yummy naughtyness is good for me!
