Re: What can i eat for lunch?

Anything from the Induction food list can be for lunch.

If you need recipe ideas, check out:

Linda's Low Carb Menus & Recipes - Home

and Atkins Food and Recipes - Atkins Diet

Since we don't know what you have in your kitchen, it's hard to make a recommendation.

Also ... the jello is a nutritional wasteland ... and not really the best think you can do for yourself.

What didn't work about yesterday?

Re: What can i eat for lunch?

thank you for the ideas,

So the jello, is not good, do you have suggestions for quick snacks?

well to start off yesterday we had a birthday party for this little girl, and they made cake (oh geez) and i couldnt fight the urge to eat the nice crispy crust of it, and got mad at myself and said i wouldnt any more, and later i ate more, and well i ended up eating a slice of cake. Adding more to the drama, they bought another cake which also looked delicious. At night i got hungry and ate an apple, and some goldfish, and i just gave up, and said that i WILL start fresh today, and so far so good.

Am I correct in assuming that 'goldfish' is some sort of sweet snack? Fish are definitely low-carb !

Hi Elizellen. Goldfish are little cheesy snack crackers shaped like fish. Very tasty but oh so full of carbs.

Deviled eggs with some veggies like celery or cucumber sticks, pepper strips...

Leftovers.

Celery sticks with cream cheese.

Anything can be eaten for lunch. I tend to have a salad with steak or chicken on top.

Jello triggers cravings in me and many others. Personally I'd cut all the sweet stuff out for now so you can kill your carb cravings. Good for you for getting back on the wagon.

Thank you, Dy

I love this forum as I learn so much about food and customs all over the world

I suppose someone with patience could make their own 'lowcarb goldfish' and cut cheese into fish-shaped slices to make their own! Maybe for valentine day they could be made in heart shapes using small canapé cutters?

Re: What can i eat for lunch?

For lunch sometimes I like to fry up some shaved steak, onions and cheese, like a steak and cheese sub and just eat it out of a bowl instead of a sub roll., But mostly lunch is salads unless I'm home to cook.

Great sub for Goldfish, dip chips, snack chips---these will hold up well if you follow the directions and let them dry out. If you bag them they WILL lose their crunch. Great to use with an Atkins legal dip!

Look up Dorito Nacho Chips on Cleo's page.
