I managed low carb when out by having steak/chicken with vegetables - most pubs can manage that! I wasn't really cycling much at the time, but I was horse riding and so on a lot. At home, I restricted myself to 1 slice of bread a day and ate a lot of the same things. My diet was pretty limited because the only meat I eat is chicken breast and steak. I sometimes had poached egg. It is much easier to do if you like more meat (and I think you do!
) and fish. I think it needs to be coupled with low fat/calorie intake as well. If you eat as much green veg as you possibly can, it helps
. I did have a diet sheet from a Harley St Doctor, but it is extremely restrictive (if effective).
Per day:
Green veg
3 tomatoes
1 slice of bread
1 low fat yoghurt
lump of meat (about the size of a steak or a chicken breast) or fish
piece of cheese (edam, gouda, brie or camenbert)
I think I drank skimmed milk in tea, but I'm not sure it was on the list.
That is all I can remember, there were possibly other bits that I didn't like. I used to have marmite on toast for breakfast, salad for lunch with the cheese and then meat and green veg for dinner (or the other way round). It wasn't exciting, but it was pretty easy! I kept it up for months. I drank tea, coffee, diet drinks and water.
Good luck.
