Vegetarian-conscious-eater

Are you diabetic or insulin resistant? If so, I understand why you're trying to limit carbs. If not, vegetarianism and low-carb are not always an easy combination . . . but fortunately, low-carb isn't essential for most people for weight loss (it does help some with cravings and satiation).

I've been vegetarian for 43 years now, and lost 1/3 of my body weight while eating around 150-200g carbs most days (and while getting enough protein and healthy fats).

I'm not saying you shouldn't pick the strategies you find most helpful - quite the contrary - but simply saying that there may be some tradeoffs when combining two ways of eating, both of which are at the edges of our culture's mainstream.

Good luck!
