I am doing a slow carb diet for 30 days. I can't have sugar, fruits, breads. Need meat, vegetable, bean dishes. Please help as I really need to lose 20lbs. Had red beans for dinner, and chicken teriaki for lunch.

Your grill is your friend.
One of my go-to low carb meals is boneless/skinless chicken thighs marinated in Sriracha, rice vinegar, soy sauce and a bit of oil. Marinate for a day, grill, rest, chop, toss pieces in resting juices, eat.
Also, bib lettuce works well make wraps of grilled meat - skirt or flank steak seasoned for fajitas; make wrap with meat, cheese and sour cream.

For something simple:
Salad with lettuce, cucumber, broccoli, maybe some chick peas etc.
Dressing? Tons of sugar. So use lemon and salt or I like vinegar (with a little oil if you need it-I dont't) mixed with lemon pepper.
Grill some chicken or salmon and it is a great meal.

I did the greens faces diet about a year ago. Lost 15 lbs in 15 days w/ no exercise.
Pretty Simple:
1.)You can eat it if it is or was green.
2.)You can eat it if it had a face or would have had a face (ie eggs).
3.)That's it
Pretty much a low carb, fresh ingredient diet/lifestyle, made real simple for us dummies.

What about cheese, or is it too processed? It comes from an animal that has a face.

Could you provide a rough ratio of the ingredients in the marinade? This sounds like it would be something I could add into the rotation.

So what would be the harm in eating a piece of squash?

Probably no harm but if the idea is to stay away from sugar/starches I would think there are better options than squash, corn, potatoes, etc.

Black Beans with Cumin and Oregano
Chickpea Salad
White Beans with Tasso
I eat a slow carb diet, this is what I eat daily:
Breakfast: 2 eggs sauteed in ghee, half cup of black beans prepared as above.
Lunch: Salmon filet (seared in pan (see alton brown method)), mixed veggies (carrots, tomatoes, celery)
Dinner: Protein (Chk breast, roast of some sort, etc), salad with homemade vinaigrette.
Here's the recipe for vinaigrette I use: French Vinaigrette
More recipes:
Baked chicken with lentils
Lentils with Garlic and Tomatoes

Sam's has them in a bag that has individual portions, just pop them in the microwave.

For one pack (5) of thighs:
1/4 cup rice vinegar
1/8 cup soy sauce
3-4 T Sriracha
1 T oil
(original recipe calls for 3T sugar)

I did no cheese as it isn't green (well some are), and it can't grow up to have a face.
It is more set for simplicity, it believe. I have no doubt there are foods that give the same results that don't meet this criteria. But it made it simple for me.

That is simply a low glycemic diet. You avoid refined, quick to digest carbs that raise blood glucose and insulin levels since that is causes accululation of body fat. Flour, rice, breads, potatoes, pasta, beer, etc. are avoided and replaced with mostly meat and fat including eggs, cheese, leafy greens, and other low glycemic foods. Atkins is one variation, and it works. It's not necessary to limit the meat and fat intake like diets that count calories. Read Taubes 'why we get fat, and what to do about it'.

Wife is doing the same......here's a recipe that is very good. We make it even when not doing low carb....
Weight Watcher’s Chili
½ lb. lean ground turkey (I usually use 1lb.)
1 small onion diced
1 cup celery diced
1 med bell pepper diced
1 med yellow squash diced
1 med zucchini diced
1 – 28 oz. can diced tomatoes
1 – 15 oz. can black beans
1 pkg chili seasoning mix
1 – 12 oz. can low-sodium low-fat beef broth
Brown turkey and onions in pan sprayed with Pam. Add remaining ingredients (don’t drain the beans, the juice adds falvor)
Add cook for 30-40 minutes until vegetables are tender.
1 cup=1 point
This is from Weight Watchers, but I use 1 pound of lean ground beef instead of ground turkey.
And I use the spicy chili seasoning mix, but only because I like spicy food.
Also, consider making a big soup. We had blackened catfish (done outdoors) and veggies last night which is another good alternative

If you like Blue Cheese dressing, Marie's has a zero sugar added Chunky Blue Cheese. Albertsons keeps theirs in the refridgerated section with all the pre-cut salad stuff. Very low carb and tastes great.
