When I started out, I restricted my diet massively. I switched from
eating mostly vegetarian pizzas to eating:
prime steak
organic chicken
sausages
eggs
raw carrot
cucumber
lettuce
bacon
herbs (parsley, sage, coriander, basil, mint, thyme, etc)
hot chillies
the occasional tomato
I would make all these ingredients up into "lettuce wraps"... sort
of like a burrito except using 2 or 3 lettuce leaves as a wrapping.
I would make up 3 of these at a time and make up 2 or 3 batches
per day.
It got pretty boring after a couple of weeks :)
I eat a wider range of things now... lots more veggies. I don't
worry about carb restriction as much any more. I found I had to
increase my carb intake to keep some weight on. I had gone from
over 170 lbs to under 125 in a couple of months... pretty scary.
I have stabilized at around 135 now.
