Slow Carb Torture... I Mean Diet

For me, trying to lose the baby weight has been challenging to say the least.  I'm 4 months post delivery and still have about 10 more pounds to shed.  I've resorted to drastic measures, the slow carb diet.  Let me run down the six simple rules for you:
1.  Eat 30 grams of protein within an hour of waking
2.  Nothing White - no bread, rice, pasta, potatoes, tortillas, nothing w/ flour in it
3.  No Diary (for a Wisconsin girl this has been particularly painful)
4.  Don't drink your calories: no beer, white wine, champagne, fruit juice, soda
5.  No Fruit
6.  Take one day off per week
Ok, now I dare you to find something to eat that fits the rules.  Good luck! 
Tonight's Burkholder dinner recipe:
Slow Carb Meatloaf:
1 lb lean ground beef
2 eggs
French onion soup mix
1 cup slightly mashed, cooked lentils (because we can't use crackers or bread crumbs)
salt, pepper & garlic to taste
Bake @ 375 for 30 minutes
