Unfortunately, it would be really difficult to do that, what with everyone having different restrictions (low sodium, low carb, low sugar, sugar free, lactose intolerance, gluten free, etc.), allergies, taste preferences, cooking skills, and the like.
Perhaps visiting with a nutritionist would benefit you, so your diet can be personally tailored to you and your needs.
I'm sorry we can't be of more service.
Some of their choices DO have grains, but they are whole grains like Oats, Rye, or Quinoa...These are still considered low carb.....There's a difference here as opposed to typical dog foods that are full of cheap grains such as corn, wheat & soy making up the bulk of the product.....Actually, there is no comparison!
Their line also includes many grain free choices.
You might want to visit their web sight for further information.....
I like the paleo diet. My weight loss had stalled for a long time, and now I'm losing again on the paleo diet. There's a lot of information out there about the paleo diet, nowadays. A book called The Paleo Approach is a good introduction. I also like the PaleoMom website, and she also has a book that has just come out. Nom Nom Paleo is another good source. In effect, the paleo diet is a low-carb diet, because you don't eat any grains.
Carbs from whole grains and/or carbs with fiber will help you maintain more stable blood sugar.

I can't believe you don't eat grains & fruit, grains are bread, & isn't some fruit better for you berry family?
When choosing carbs, the focus should be on healthy carb. sources, like fruits and vegetables, along with healthier complex carbs like whole grains.
Healthy carbs. provide fuel for the body and they also contain fiber.
whole grains cannot be identified by the color of the food, look for products that have 5 grams, or 20 percent of the daily value of fiber, per serving.
Haven't had it but there will be tons of info if you Google "low carb diets". If you could completely cut all sugar and basically all grains and not overdo your fruit intake, you would be eating a perfect diet for GD. (and a really awesomely healthy diet in general!
I have no beef with anything going on here, just wanted to clarify some things that are often misstated these days (not necessarily on here). The Japanese and Scandinavians have the longest life spans right now and the best health, and both cultures consume a lot of grain. The macrobiotic diet is very grain based, probably because it's based largely on Japanese principles. The much lauded Mediterranean diets are all full of grains.
Dr. W. I'm sure you've heard the phrase "fat and happy." Well, it's not just folklore. The same carbs that make you fat (and contribute to diabetes and other problems) also make you happy. It's simple science: Carbs allow more of the amino acid L-tryptophan to penetrate your brain. The L-tryptophan triggers your brain to make more serotonin, and the serotonin makes you feel happier. It's as simple as that!
It usually involves cutting all added sugars, grains, sweet fruits and starchy veges. Low carb is defined as less than 100g of carbs per day. Very low carb is 25 - 50 g of carb per day. When you cut carbs you still energy so you get this from increasing your fat intake and making sure you have enough protein. Enough protein can be at least 100g for a woman and probably about 120g for a man. You can use a diet tracker to work out which foods have how much carbs, protein, and fats.
hiya im early pregnant and was wondering if its safe to do a low carb pregnancy whilst pregnant i did it for a while before i knew i was pregnant and lost quite a bit of weight. how much carbs does baby need a day? does anyone have any other safe diets im like a stone overweight.
As a general guideline when eating low carb the easiest way is to cut out all grains and added sugars. No sweetened foods either. Fruits will be limited to small portions of low carb fruits such as berries.
Plenty of salad and non-starchy vegetables, particularly green vegetables. Fats should come naturally with the foods (such as fatty meats, avocado, nuts, full-fat dairy) and avoid processed fats.
Let us know what your a1c is.
Hope this response is helpful for you.
Remember that all vegetables are carbs, too. Different people require different diets. Avoiding grains, for example -- whole grains are actually fine, it's the simple carbs that are the problem. Permanent weight maintenance is more complicated than a fad diet. See a holistic nutritionist and figure out what suits you best -- might be a vegetarian diet high in grains. Have you seen many fat macrobiotics? They mostly eat whole grains.
The principle of low carb diet is restricting carbs, particularly all grains, sugars, starchy veges and sweet fruits, and eating a diet that focusses more on protein, low carb plant foods (veges and non-sweet fruits), some nuts, and healthy fats. While this may sound a little intimidating it is actually pretty easy and there are lots of great recipe ideas online easily accessible. key words will be low-carb, and keto.
