If you cut carbs,

What do you eat for breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks? I'm trying to cut my carbs down to once a day. I have no clue what to eat. Carbs are in everything!

Eggs or yogurt are good if you're cutting. I try to limit but not cut entirely and breakfast is where I usually eat them because eggs everyday would drive me mad!

Re: If you cut carbs,

I eat my carbs in the morning. So I eat 2 slices of light whole wheat toast with either peanut butter, or I'll make an egg and cheese sandwich.

Lunch is a salad with protein. Sometimes I do spinach salad with bacon bits, egg, avocado, tomato, peppers. Other times I'll do chicken salad with lettuce, grapes, avocado, almonds. Sometimes I do a turkey burger with no bun.

My go-to snack is almonds and raisins. Raisins have a lot of sugar so I limit them.

Dinner is protein and a veggie and dessert is usually fruit. I also snack on fruit during the day, usually grapes or strawberries. Also cheese is a good snack.

Re: If you cut carbs,

Protein and veggies! I eat egg whites with veggies usually spinach and onions for breakfast or cottage cheese. I also eat a lot of non-breakfast foods for breakfast- Grilled chicken or lean beef. For lunch mixed greens and lean protein usually fish, chicken or hard boiled egg whites (I really hate the yokes!). For snacks I eat nuts (almonds or cashews), cottage cheese, cheese or an apple with nut butter (usually almond or peanut). For dinner lean protein, veggies and carbohydrate. I find carbohydrate cycling works better for me then a low carbohydrate diet. I Try to rotate low, medimum and high carbohydrate days.

Re: If you cut carbs,

You mean grains? I eat my graiins WITH my breakfast and then l limit my other daily carbs to fruits and veggies. (Mainly veggies cause you get more bang for your buck!)
