I've been posting in the daily low carb forum and they've been very helpful. I thought I'd ask here if anyone has tried living in Asia?

My husband is taking an assignment in Singapore. I've been eating a low-carb diet for about 30 years. I don't eat any grains, sugars, potatoes, or dairy. So I guess I'm probably close to paleo.

I'm worried that I won't have enough to eat in Singapore. I'm a 58-yo woman, about 5'5" and 135 lbs. I generally am not able to survive on what I can eat in restaurant meals without supplementing - I usually eat something before I go out to dinner and after. Do other people have this problem? I eat a lot of nuts for example. I wouldn't mind losing 10 pounds but I don't want to be hungry which is why I haven't lost 10 lbs. here.

Singapore may not allow me to ship in food. They eat lots of noodles, rice and everything has a lot of sugar. Eating fish and vegetables in a restaurant for example will not give me the calories I need to not be hungry. Even a normal restaurant portion of meat isn't usually enough. Anyone else have this problem? It's not a problem here because I have a can of nuts and a bag of pork rinds in my car. But I may not be able to get those there.
