Ok. I’m trying to start the T-Dawg 2.0 diet plan but I’ve always find too difficult to go into a low carb diet.
Difficult cause everything I finf to eat out there has carbs.
3 of my 6 meals has to be made out of home, cause I work and study.
So, the 3 meals I eat in home is easy to get out of carbs, but what about those 3 other?
Could you guys suggest me some examples of good meals with low carb I could make out of home? Mainly “snacks” cause I dont want to go 3 times a day to the restaurant.

The only problem is that handy things I could prepare to eat would be “turkey or tuna sanswich”. But these use bread =/

Maybe I could carry some cottage cheese and turkey and put them inside the cooler we have at work.
the problem would be the College Meal.[/quote]
id do it in class as well. Tell them you have to eat its your diet they CANT really screw with that. Claim its medical if they give you grief.

Protein bars arent good cause they contain lots of carbs too.[/quote]
Some carbs are needed just dont get onme LOADED with crap and use them earlier in the day. I used Metabolic Drive bars from time to time for such though out of personal preferance mainly went with a Shake and fruit or nuts or real food instead.
Just takes some planning and a lil work on your part. No one said its easy thats why so many people have probs gaining, Its work to eat a ton.
In Gourmet Nutrition from Berardi are a lot of recipes, like low-carb homemade protein bars… even one with no baking!
And I think there are in the recipe section a lot of great advices too.
Prepare the night before. What you can do also is make protein pancakes, easy to take with you. Or just whey with a healthy fat source
Making sugar-free pudding with 2 scoops of Metabolic Drive is one of my favorites when it comes to a low carb snack. There’s plenty of flavors in sugar-free pudding so you can definitely get some variety.
Some other low carb snacks I like:
vanilla Metabolic Drive with peanut butter
chicken breast with thai peanut sauce
breadless turkey meatballs(check out Berardi’s recipe)
