I agree that while on the road, the choices are quite limited. I love diners when traveling. I might spend more on a meal than I would like, but I eat one whole hell of a lot less too.

hahhaha... yea.. I feel like I'm growing feathers when I do the meat and egg thing. OMG.. I just got finished having a minute steak w/a whole egg and 2 eggwhites. Bok bok bok bok bok.. so many eggs.

When I'm on the road, I order a hamburger patty with an egg on it.

Frankly, I don't know how on earth I've stuck to this as long as I have, but I have to say, once you get used to eating this way, all the pastas and sweet veggies and sugary things just lose their appeal.

I'm down over 120 lbs in about 9 months.. and I credit my increased mobility to this way of eating (after trying everything short of surgery). The pain relief alone was worth the expense and the intermittent frustration with the menu.

I know the strain of the weight just complicates an already painful condition for you (it did for me even though I dealt with nothing as severe as what you're going through).

I hope there is a way for you to find some relief.. I really do feel ya here.
