Hi, I'm about to embark on strict low carb from tomorrow! Do I need to take any vitamin supplements and are protein shakes a good idea as well?
If I feel hungry I plan to snack on cheese or hard boiled eggs....any other ideas?
Also is pâté allowed?

I take an omega oil in liquid form and a good multi vitamin
Protein shakes I have post workout

I think pâté is ok... Just check carbs on packaged ones maybe. Tuna mixed will full fat mayo scooped on lettuce (little gem) is a good snack

Great thank you. I do cycle a lot so the shakes post cycle is useful.
