Implementing exercise on a low carb low calorie diet

Favorite distractions during those 'I NEED TO EAT EVERYTHING' moments?
Mine is sometimes drawing (it's my profession) but MAN videogames help the most. When I have a bad time I just go and play Splatoon 2 or Kingdom Hearts. I don't even care that I suck compared to most players. The important thing is I get DISTRACTED from the low times. What do you guys do? Obligatory squid here:

What food(s) has helped YOU stick your diet plan?
Since I'm on a <20 Carb a day diet plan I'm always on the hunt for low/zero carb spicy condiments. Huy Fong Sambal Oelek is my go to-- I put it on EVERYTHING Also tofu and cabbage-- I grew up mostly vegetarian (but now I eat meat) so it's hard for me to constantly ingest animal proteins.. so tofu and cabbage is a nice…

Low Carb diet making me cranky... but I need to stay strong for my hip! Advice?
I'm on Atkins-- day 11 of the Induction Phase and MAN. I can barely do a thing. I was feeling ok for a couple of days this week and I'm having a serious crash.
