Game Rules for the Careful Carb Diet

You must consume your minimum protein requirement every day! Allowed proteins include meat, fish, poultry, eggs and eggs substitutes, cheese, and sugar-free protein powder. Eat a minimum of 14 grams of protein at breakfast. You must have protein at every meal, and you may divide up your protein so that you have snacks, too, if you like. Leaner proteins are better than fattier proteins—with the exception of fatty fishes such as salmon, mackerel, herring, and sardines, which are wonderful! Do not exceed your protein requirement by more than 20 grams a day.

Eat healthy fats in moderation, but do not use excessive quantities of added fat, or of very high-fat foods such as nuts and cheeses. A tablespoon or two of mayonnaise or olive oil is okay; half a cup is not!

Eat low-carbohydrate vegetables freely; the more the better. Low-carb veggies are: Alfalfa sprouts

Artichokes

Arugula

Asparagus

Avocado

Beans

(green, wax, and snap)

Beet greens

Bok choy

Broccoli

Brussels sprouts

Lettuce (all kinds)

Mushrooms

Olives

Peppers
