BTW Risha your daughter is gorgeous!!
I go to business breakfasts all the time, this morning went to a lovely one w. organic ham & eggs & rocket - on a bagel of course, these people can't conceive of breakfast without carbs - but it wasn't a particularly nice looking bagel so it didn't tempt me!!!
However yesterday morning went to a brekky function, was expecting the mandatory eggs benedict & bacon, and instead there were platters on the tables with very few lc options. Not happy Jan. Left there starving and my colleague was saying, 'but there was PLENTY of food!!' Yeah, right.
I find that if you tell restaurants/hotels etc that you're ALLERGIC to wheat & potatoes they jump thru hoops to provide alternative options for you...the last thing they want is causing an allergic reaction in you, for fear of being sued. And if anyone asks me what happens if I eat wheat, I just tell them I get fat!!!!
Anyways, I agree that this WOE is becoming more accepted, when I first started I was bombarded with people showing me the food pyramid with the big fat "CARBS" section, saying 'you NEEEEEEEEED CARBOHYDRATES!!!' (LOL when I challenged them by asking "WHY do I need carbohydrates?" they couldn't tell me other than 'it's on the food pyramid' rofl). However nowadays it is in the media so much more and it seems to becoming more & more accepted & well-known. Maybe cause of Hollywood people!!!
Anyways that is my ramble!!!
