whenever food is provided at work or at a training day they always ask for dietary requirements (they mean are you a vegetarian?)

They wish they hadn't asked when I request low carb as they usually haven't a clue but its an interesting process of education and explanation.

All diets have strict rules, LC no exception and to make the diet real you have to externalise it, no better way than putting in a request for low carb....Also its good for people to find out about low carb and then decide for themselves.

Recently instead of providing a special meal for me ata abuffet lunch the whole thing was low carb (delicious actually) but the high carbers were upset at the absence of bread and cakes!!

Any way these New Yorkers are externalising their diet and getting it catered for - good for them!!
