    I try to keep my carbs under 30 grams per day. Above that I gain weight and feel like crap.

    Very VERY limited wheat products like bread, pasta, etc (once per week if that). I used to use konjac noodles as an alternative but they’ve become very expensive.

    Zero sugar (I use stevia instead, but it’s an acquired taste).

    I make protein shakes with 0% milk, real chocolate powder, collagen protein and stevia. I’ll have 2-3 @ 16oz per day.

    I also make my own soda/pop with club soda, lemon and lime juice, and stevia.

    Drink about a gallon/4 litres of water per day.

    And because of cost I eat a lot of frozen veggies vs fresh … mixed with pasta sauce, melted cheese on top, or made into an omlet of sorts.

    Homemade soups are also great, but I currently live in a rooming house so don’t have access to a freezer anymore.
