Low Carb eating plan

If you choose to follow a low carb eating plan, this resource will guide you. Rather than a set diet, you can choose from a couple of recipes or foods to eat at any given meal. The beauty of doing it this way is you can swap and have breakfast choices for lunch and vice versa- or you can skip breakfast and fast through until lunch- whatever suits.

Zucchini bread (recipe in lunch ideas) toasted. Topped with avocado, virgin olive oil and a sprinkle of sea or pink rock salt.

or,
