    I am also working on this. I have an insulin resistance and pretty much have to do low carb. Could use some ideas to liven things up a bit.

    Exactly. I found that my weight loss is so much faster and I don't even crave carbs anymore. I want ideas for snacks and/or easy lunches...

    I do a LOT of veggies. Today for lunch, I have pan grilled chicken strips (a breast seasoned and sliced) and broccoli. For my first snack, I had a string cheese. Later, I will have sliced mushrooms and ricotta. I dont watch the veggie carbs so much. (no potatoes, very little corn and no peas and only home-cooked beans) I eat all the veggies I want though other than those. I stick to berries and melons when I have fruit (they have lower sugar) and I do limit them to a minimum just because the sweet taste makes me want more sweets.
  • I'm doing THE BELLY FAT CURE which is a type of low carb diet. Some carbs are ok on it. There are a few websites that have some great recipes for low carb. http://purplerosy.blogspot.com/ she has lost 90 pounds doing the BFC and also http://www.meandjorge.com/ Check them out... oh also http://www.sugarfreesheila.com/ she's got some great ones too!
