BTW, I'm not eating low carb at all (close to 200g/day) yet get in 2g/kg BW as protein fairly easily.. just because starches get dropped and I'm getting nearly all carbs from veggies & fruit on rest days plus yummy stuff for refeeds.
You're right about the fairness; it was sort of just a joke/whine anyway.
I should look into frozen veg for lunches actually. My husband refuses to eat anything but fresh though so I can't for dinner (yes, its annoying but he's lovely regardless ).

Also, you're right about the carbs too. I meant breads/cereals/etc., not carbs generally.
