| Off of the little pie chart that is telling you what percents of what you are eating,(Fat,Protein,Carbs)It's like i am aways eating carbs and fats, maybe i am just trained to eat these things i don't know. What i am asking of you is..... can you give me a meal for a day or days that there is little carbs and little fat. By the way i am new to this Group.I joined a while ago, but i am finally starting to do something about my health.If you have any question's feel free to ask. And that's about it have a great day everyone.

You can't simply cut the carbs and fat out of your diet. There are negative physiological factors that will occur in your body if you do this for extended periods of time.
The Atkins diet will cut carbs and fat from your diet, but forces you to eat large amounts of protein to supply the needed calories to sustain the body. This will cause your blood to become more acidic which is not good for you. A high protein diet (like the Atkins Diet) should not be followed for more than two weeks. So, it's a temporary or fad-like diet that can be helpful for short term use.
I have a lot of material that I've gathered over the years and dug up the following when searching for a meal plan recently. I do not have the source for this meal plan in my notes (forgive me) and can not properly cite the material. It is not my creation and I can not take credit for it, but it is a low carb diet that you can tweak as you see fit.
Complex Carbs: (Fiber) Broccoli, Okra Cauliflower, Green Beans, Brussel Sprouts, Cucumbers, Squash, Mushrooms Zucchini
Tomatoes, and Spinach.
Complex Carbs: (Starch) Oatmeal, Cream of Wheat, Potatoes, Yams, Brown Rice, Carrots, and Legumes.
Simple Carbs: Apples, Blueberries, Bananas, Oranges, Raspberries, Grapes, and Peaches.
Proteins: Chicken breast, Turkey breast, Fish, Shellfish, and Egg Whites.
Dairy Products: Low fat milk, Cheese, and Yogurt.
Essential Fats: Nuts seeds, Flaxseed or Olive or Canola oil, Natural Peanut Butter, and Olives.
Meal 1:
Protein and a Complex Carb (Starch)

Protein and a Complex Carb (Starch)
Meal 3:

Meal 4:
