Hey! Good for you for going veggie! I decided last Sept that I'd try and be veggie for 6months and guess what? It's been over a year now and I'm still going strong
Like
popspry said, it is tough to do low carb when ur veggie...but it is def doable.
What a typical day looks like for me:
Breakfast:
1 cup greek yogurt w/ 1 cup of either blue/straw/raspberries (fresh or frozen) and 2 TBSP chopped walnuts---I add a packet of splenda to this
**I make my own greek yogurt, very simple and a bit cheaper too I think
Lunch:
2 cups of any kind of bean (lentil, kidney, mung, black eyed peas, chickpeas etc) **You can do so many things with beans, make them Indian style, Mexican, Chinese, Thai, Mediterranean...the list is endless
Snack:
15-20 almonds with 1-2 ounces of cheese
Dinner:
2 Veggie burgers wrapped in 4/5 lettuce leaves (each) with 1 TSP flavored sourcream (on each)
2 cups broccoli and garlic sauteed in olive oil
Notice how I haven't included brown rice, whole wheat bread/pita, quinoa, oatmeal etc.---I plan on slowly re-introducing those foods when I get to goal
