I have been very willing to limit processed carbs - but I have never given up potatoes entirely! I love potatoes. I don't eat as many as I used to, and tend to save them for a treat. I don't eat many baked goods anymore, but every now and then I just HAVE to have a Krispy Kreme doughnut. And my mother's coconut cake! But I only get that three times a year, tops. Brett, one of my favorite no-fuss lunches is some mixed greens (like you buy in a bag, if you can get them where you are), maybe some tomatoes, whatever you like, with some tuna/chicken/turkey/ham/salmon, depending on my mood and what's in the fridge. Lowfat salad dressing. Maybe a little feta or gorgonzola cheese and a few walnuts or sunflower seeds. Chicken is really good with some mandarin oranges on a salad. Anyhow, this way you get some protein and some roughage altogether. Makes a nice easy supper in the summertime as well. :-)
