    Instead of the general forums, you might try a like minded group........

    Green leafy/cruciferous veggies such as lettuce, spinach, cauliflower, broccoli, and brussel sprouts.

    Any meats - I prefer dark meat with skin and fattier cuts but if you prefer lean cuts, that's fine too - they generally have more protein and less fat, and I prefer more fat.

    Nuts - Almonds and macadamia nuts are good - cashews are pretty carby.

    Cheese and full fat dairy products

    As for fast meals - I throw together a salad using spinach leaves, a creamy dressing, some hard boiled eggs, and some slices of prosciutto. It takes only a few minutes and it's yummy and satisfying.

    Hard boiled eggs are good for a quick breakfast - super portable as well.

    I also like deli meat roll ups - using a slice of deli meat, I smear some cream cheese and fold it over - sometimes I add olives or pickles.

    As mentioned above, the LCD group is full of great information.
