I love steak.  But have it every day for a month or two and it gets  
boring.  Sure, I can spice it up differently, but without adding some  
vegetables, fruit, or nuts, there are only so many days I can eat it  
before I start saying "Steak, again?".

In our culture, food is not just fuel.  But regardless of that, it doesn't  
change the fact that *for me* a diet of zero carb becomes too monotonous  
pretty quickly.

I wasn't talking about low carb (LC), I was talking about zero carb (ZC).   
There are plenty of things you can add to your plate other than meat and  
still be low carb.  I can eat low carb indefinitely without boredom, it's  
just zero carb that's a problem.
