Hi all
I'm new to the site and wondering if anybody else here is doing low carb according to Barry Groves?
I stumbled across his website after I noticed his name was brought up in an opinion somebody had posted to a fairly recent news story on the Daily Mail website and looked up his books on the web and what he says does seem to make some sense.
I'm not diabetic or anything (to the best of my knowledge) but I have wondered for a while if carbs disagree with me and if might have more luck keeping the weight off this time if I follow a low carb diet and keep to Barry's advice afterwards?
I am of course coming up against opposition from my bread junkie DH who hasn't quite voiced his opinion that he thinks Barry is a quack but I know he's thinking it!
I'm also hampered by the fact that our eldest has a nut allergy so already I can't make the rather yummy sounding almond and parmesan breakfast pancakes that seem to be the basis for a lot of his recipes and meal suggestions.
First off - what is the easiest / best way to get started? I've read most of the book I bought and his website and I thought I got it, but then sat down to write a shopping list and promptly forgot it all
Can somebody give me a kick in the right direction please?
Many thanks!
