Yes, it's low carb. The plan is 10% carbs on a normal day, 20% carbs on a high day, and "no" carbs one day a week (except for what occurs naturally in nuts and other fats).

For simplicity's sake and to keep costs down at the grocery store, here's what I have planned for next week (the following week will be different, to combat boredom):

Breakfast: 3 egg whites/1/3 cup Egg beaters (depending on price)
2 whole Omega-3 eggs
2 oz. turkey ham
1 oz. cheddar cheese
1 plum OR 1.5 cups green pepper (alternate every other day)

Snack: 1 cup lowfat cottage cheese

Lunch: 1 can chunk light tuna
1T mayo
Sliced olives
1/2 oz. cheddar cheese
1 c. spaghetti squash with salt and pepper

Snack: 1.5 scoops protein powder and water
1 small apple
12 almonds

Workout: 1 scoop protein powder and water (or mixed with Gatorade on high-carb days)

Dinner: 6 oz. grilled chicken breast
2 c. spinach
1T olive oil
1T vinegar
3T parmesan cheese
