Thanks for your support and well done - it's sounds like you've got a handle on things really quickly!
To be honest though those food examples are the sort of thing that's freaking me out... do you actually feel full after meal with no bread, toast, potatoes, chips, pasta etc? Even with GD I had some of that stuff, just smaller amounts, but as I say i think I was quite a borderline case. The idea of counting out 3 raspberries only for the rest of my life is so depressing! Also I get migraines sometimes and usually find the best way to stave them off at first signs of a headache is to get some carbs or sugar into me so not sure how I'll handle that. And my kids favourite meals I cook mostly involve pasta and sauce eg lasagne and macaroni cheese. Sorry that's not to criticise your suggestions - I know that's what I need to do, just keep getting into panics because it seems too big at the moment.
