Try chicken maybe even fish. I my self love shrimp. If you don't like the fatty stuff stay away, the point of this diet is to eat things we like. Check out some of the low Carb Recipes. Try different thing tell you come across something you can live with.

I had the same problem the first time I tried the diet. I think I was trying to eat too much fat right away. I, also, am a sugar junkie so I think it's kind of a shock for the body. Don't give up! I had to be creative with recipes at first with what to eat and trick myself sometimes. I found that if I ate fat from non-meat sources like cream cheese that my stomach handled it a little better. Also, have a green salad for lunch or dinner with oil/vineger. It helps digestion. Good luck! We are all here to help you. Posts: 4 | From: Sacramento, CA | Registered: Apr 2002

I agree if meat fat makes you feel ill try to get your fat from olive oils, avacados, cheese and butter. I did feel ill for about 2 weeks when I first started this WOL. I knew it was the withdrawls my body had to go through to get all the toxic chemicals out of my system and I endured it. I'm glad I did and if I had to do it again I would. I never want to eat the way I did before I found this WOL. Thank goodness I don't have to anymore.
