What kinds of foods are recommended for a low-carb diet?
I was diagnosed with PCOS and need to begin a low-carb diet. I am not familiar with what this entails and could use some guidance on putting together a plan. A: Meat: all types. When I was on the low-carb diet, I stuck to chicken and fish, because too much red meat can be overwhelming. Green veggies–lettuce and broccoli. Eggs. Breakfast meals are the easiest meal on low-carb. Stick with scrambled eggs, omelettes, fried eggs, and a side like sausage or bacon (but remember what I said about the red meat!) I would eat boiled eggs like they were going out of style. It depends on how low-carb you need to keep it, but there is a great bread, called Healthy Life that is low in carbs (about 5 per slice). Great for sandwiches! Try reading the Atkins Diet book, there are tons of great recipes.
