This is an excellent thread.
I learned:
1. that roasting 2-3 trays of vegetables into a food processed mash, provides the basis for a great soup. It ensures I get in my 4 c veggies/day, is incredibly delicious, filling and helps me stay away from unhealthy food.
2. low carb, med-high protein choc shakes are a snack that fuels my metabolism and I can sneak extra veggies into it.
3. Most starches don't really taste that good, it just isn't worth it to go off this protocol.
4. There is a world of low carb alternatives that I will continue to use once I reach my goal (in a month or so). For example, there is a low carb brownie mix that is almost as good as mu usual brand. And to be healthier, feel thin, be able to wear just about anything is more than worth the taste sacrifice.
