Here are some ideas..
I've been in OA for a couple of years now and I totally understand the frustration you are feeling when it comes to finding food without sugar. I've given up flour, sugar (5th ingredient and beyond is okay), diet pop, gum and have limited my salt intake since salt contains sugar (who would have thought, right). It is hard at first, but gets much, much easier once the sugar and wheat gets out of your system (usually takes at least 17 days).
So since I don't eat any flour (including wheat), I eat a lot of rice, potatoes and quinoa. Here is a sample of my food plan for today. Note: I am on the diabetic food plan, not the Kay Sheppard plan.
Breakfast
2 starch - 1 cup hashbrowns (Cascadian Farm Organic hashbrowns, put in microwave safe container, add 1 tbsp water, microwave for 7 minutes)
3 meat - 3 oz. of Applegate's Organics Chicken & Apple Sausage
1 fruit - 1 1/4 cup strawberries
1 dairy - 1 cup skim milk
1 fat - 1 tsp butter
1 condiment - 2 tbsp Heinz Ketchup Reduced Sugar
Morning Snack
1 fruit - grapes 3 oz.
Lunch
3 starch - 1 cup rice
3 meat - 3 oz. roasted chicken
2 vegetables - 1 cup cooked green beans
1 fruit - orange 6.5 oz
1 fat - 1 tsp olive oil (put on top of rice)
Afternoon Snack
1 fruit - apple 4 oz.
Dinner
3 starch - 9 oz. potatoes
3 meat - 3 oz. hamburger
2 veg - 1 cup cooked carrots
1 dairy - 1 cup skim milk
1 fruit - 1 cup raspberries
1 fat - 1 tsp butter
1 condiment - 1 tbsp Heinz Reduced Sugar Ketchup
Evening Snack
1 dairy - 1 cup skim milk
1 fruit - banana 4 oz.
I hope this helps.
