Bryony,
We seem to have come to an accommodation on similar lines to your own. We are both trying to lose weight, and having at least some success, which helps. I was able to bypass a macaroni cheese without offense but with some regret on my part. We do ordinarily have frequent salmon, trout and ocean fish, as well as seafood (there are local lobster and scallop fisheries, and lobster prices are depressed at the moment). My own unshared weakness is sardines, which are in fact a very satisfactory no-carb food for independent use. Unfortunately the local sardine cannery only cans baby herring (sild) which are to my mind inferior to the real thing.
