Yeah, fwiw, my plan says 1/4 of a tomato max. If I want one I will usually just eat one cherry tomato, or a slice. But agree, easier for you to just cut out for your approach.
How are you preparing your meat? I find I lose best with chicken, and fish, and I am exquisitely careful that any prepared meats (sausages, hot dogs, deli meats) don't have sugars...i.e. honey ham. I go far enough that we cure our own hams, and now are beginning to make our own sausages. I buy plain ground pork and have various recipes to make it into whatever we want.
Eggs are your friend - I make a "breakfast" casserole that we eat Monday-Wednesday. It has a layer of homemade breakfast sausage, dozen eggs, goat cheese, and I do include veggies allowed on my plan. You would just omit, or use very low carb ones instead (I use mushrooms, scallions and some peppers.)
Don't be discouraged, and consider picking a plan you can live with, it will guide you and reassure you.
