Easy, low-carb low calorie lunch.

Turkey burger topped with sauteed onions, jalapeno peppers, cheese and hot sauce. Served with a wedge of cabbage drizzled with Italian dressing and dusted with black pepper. Very tasty and less than 500 calories and about eight grams of carbs.

Not a lot of interest and zero comments on lunch, so here is dinner. Tonight I had wings, this time with a marinated coleslaw using a Citrus Vinaigrette dressing. It was very tasty and so much lower in fat and calories than if I just made coleslaw with mayo.

Where did the 8 carbs come from for lunch? The dressing??Apollo Beach, FL

Yes, the dressing and the hot sauce. I used Tiger Sauce, which has some carbs.Wardster said:Where did the 8 carbs come from for lunch? The dressing?? -

Not losing much weight right now, but my sugar numbers are improving. I got frustrated over the holidays and just ate whatever the heck I wanted. I paid for that with blood sugar going way high and staying high. Now that I am eating more like a type-2 diabetic should eat, my numbers are improving. My fault. I did not eat right and ignored my condition for about a month. Back on track now, and watching the carb intake really makes a difference.RedSkip said:@epcotisbest.

You can do it. I find low carb eating is much easier than deprivation dieting and there is lots of variety. I have several things posted in the weight loss forum. Check them out.cheeaa said:I just started doing low carb this week. The other night was the first time ever i had a blt with no bread.

Anyway ive just started so im still pumped up on it, but gotta admit its hard with stuff like this just sitting on my counter.

Lunch and dinner both look great. I am doing low carb as well and no alcohol. I thought no alcohol would be hard but it is really not bad now that I have made it through the first weekend.
@Cheeaa - I would eat all the pepperonis off of the pizza on the left.Which came first the chicken or the egg? I egged the chicken and then I ate his leg. -
ABT's are going to be your best friends! The egg is perfect for LCHF diets: Pulled pork, steaks, chicken, briskets, etc.Large BGE - McDonald, PA

I went from 295 to 220 over the past 20 months. Could have been alot lower but I still like to have a beer and meat. The BGE is either going to help or hinder my progress due to EVERYTHING being perfect on it!

Starting my low carb run today. @epcotisbest I noticed you said you had some things posted in the weight loss forum, where do I find that. I'm interested in seeing some good low carb egg recipes with a "twist" for the BGE.
