BayMar Gourmet Sardines
BayMar Gourmet Sardines from Costco are amazing. They are terrific in a big Romaine lettuce salad. And they only contain olive oil and chili peppers (the sardines are very mildly spicy, though!).
Read MoreWild-caught Salmon, Shrimp Salad, Mini Diet Pepsi
Air-fried, wild-caught, pink salmon, Romaine lettuce salad with canned shrimp and salsa mayo. Lovely meal and a little treat (Diet Pepsi Mini).

Konjac noodles with butter, parmesan cheese and Rio Mare tuna; tomatoes on the side.
Read MoreSteak, Peppers, Blueberries and Diet Soda
This steak was melt-in-your-mouth delicious! I added some orange peppers, blueberries for dessert and a mini diet soda. Is diet soda healthy? No, but this way of eating is not about purifying your diet or avoiding every fun food and beverage; it’s about low carb!
