A good rule of thumb for low carbs are all your green veggies (lettuce, green beans, spinach, broccoli ect). As long as you have fresh vegetables you can have endless veggie intake. All fresh vegetables are very good for you; try to stay away from canned veggies. When feeling hungry thru out your day carry some fresh cut veggies with you to snack on like celery, carrots ect.

Make sure you get in your 5 small meals a day, making sure you get in a protein serving for each meal.Protein shakes are good meal replacements if you are not able to have a good high protein low carb meal. More protein sources are eggs, or egg beaters.
When choosing your protein a good serving size would fit in the palm of your hand, and make sure it’s a healthy choice of protein. Fish and Chicken are the best choices for women. Red meat is ok but try to keep it to a minimum because red meat holds more fat and is harder to break down in your system. When choosing a protein powder go with Whey protein, this protein has been proven to break down in the body the fastest for rebuilding muscles.
Make sure while on this diet you get plenty of water intake. Water is always good for you system but good water intake helps speed up your metabolism while keeping you hydrated. You should have a gallon of water intake a day.

If you have an office job to where you sit all day keep a gallon of water at your desk. This will make it easy to drink water instead of having to get up and go look for something to drink that you will regret drinking later. Good water intake is also good for your skin, just healthy all the way around. Proper water intake has been proven to make you look 10yrs younger.
