Re: Dieting/Low Carbs


The fish was ok. Bit boney. But love the cheese veggies!

Donna if you get fillet of fish, you can check for the bones before cooking it, just run your fingers over the fish and if you feel one just pull them out.

Re: Dieting/Low Carbs


Would vegi bacon and sausages be classed as low carb?

Emma would be the best person to ask BT, as I get all my advice from her, as I havent got a clue what I am doing otherwise!!

(Not much help this morning am i???)

Can you eat egg? Very filling.

Re: Dieting/Low Carbs


Hi BT you would need to check the carbohydrate content of the food on the label if you can let us know the carb content per 100g or per item I should be able to give you some idea of how low carb it is.

When I first started low carbing I was a vegetarian at the time and it is possible to do low carb using meat substitutes.

I know quorn mince is low carb.

If you have got any questions please ask and I will try an answer them

Re: Dieting/Low Carbs


Cheers for that Emma - I dont have either in at the moment (am making my own sausages this week), but if I do, I will post. Do have Quorn pieces in though, but am too lazy to walk downstairs!! I had always dismissed low carbing with being a vegi, and prob wouldn't do it full time, but might do it occasionally for say a sunday breakfast. I am trying to make meals rather than just pull somethign out of the freeze and put it in the oven!!
