I'm starting on a little diet here and I'm wondering if you all can
help me out. I've got pretty bad eating habits. I drink lots of
carbonated drinks (Coke/Pepsi), eat lots of sandwiches (bread) and eat
lots of pasta. So I've already started to cut down on everything, but
I need help identifying which foods are bad. I'm more or less trying
the low carb diet. I'm trying to cut out the bread (I only eat whole
wheat anyway) and the pasta. But because I'm so used to eating bread
and pastas, I don't know what else to eat. I know fruits and veggies
are good as well as meat, but what else can I get for a little
variety.
Like tonight for example, I had a small steak and some boiled broccoli
and cauliflower. Is that good? The thing is I know I'll probably be
hungry after my walk tonight, but I don't know what to eat that late
that is light.
Should dairy foods be avoided all together? I looked at my
mini-wheats cereal and it looks like there's a load of carbs in that.
Can you guys give me some examples of good food to eat so I don't get
bored with this too fast? Also, what should really be avoided?
Thanks.
