This is a good list for people who are starting their journey into low-carb eating.
Congrats on already losing some weight! Many people can't tolerate simple carbohydrates. Processed grains, sugars in any form, and starches are the culprits that raise insulin levels and trigger fat storage. I'm one of many though who can not even handle small amounts of complex carbohydrates, so even whole grains have to be left out of my menus.
A diet based solely on carbohydrates could, in my opinion, be very harmful. You need proteins and fats to be properly nourished.

Many people would like to try the low-carb lifestyle, but are very unsure of what foods they can or can't have. It's not really difficult, but may certainly be overwhelming for those who are new to the idea.
Today I'm going to share with you a low-carb shopping list. I've printed this list out and keep it in my recipe binder where I can always reference it. For many of you, this may be old hat. But for those of you who are needing some direction in regards to food choices, I hope this helps.
Keep in mind that none of these food will have breading on them in any form. If you want something breaded, find a low-carb cookbook and try one of the many recipes available. My personal favorite for breading is mixing spices with crushed pork rinds and Parmesan cheese. :0)
The above list is by no means exhaustive. I know I've left lots of items out. But you get the idea. Print out this list and carry it with you. When someone pooh-pooh's your plan, just pull this list out and say "Now tell me again how I'm depriving myself?" :0)
