I know I should know......

.....but I am confused. So I'm asking you guys!
If I eat 3 cups of salad in a day, do I eat more veggies in a day or is the 3 cups enough
Thanks!

Re: I know I should know......

It depends on what phase of Atkins you're on! Induction is three cups per day. As you move through OWL, it could be much more.

Re: I know I should know......

Induction.

so then if I eat 3 cups of salad a day, I do not need to eat other veggies. 3 cups is it for the day?
I know, I know, I have a serious case of "DUH" tonight.
Thanks for your help!

Re: I know I should know......

Nope, you're right! 3 cups of salad veggies or 2 cups salad and one cup other induction veggies are what you have a day!

And how you doin'? I've missed you!

Re: I know I should know......

Hey Cleo! Hi and thank you. Man I hate getting the "duhs".

ARGH. must be strong sniff sniff sniffy sniff

{{{Tam}}} *lol* the funniest things can set us off! I know I sat on the couch sniffing a Resse's Peanut Butter cup wrapper today! Stay on the wagon, or I'll come and flush your sammiches down the toidy.

Re: I know I should know......

LOL Cleo. Must have been something with peanut butter. I stayed on the wagon and tossed the sandwiches in the trash......AFTER I soaked them with liquid dish soap!

Re: I know I should know......

Oh my gosh...I'm sorry but I had to laugh! I love that you soaked the sandwiches in dish soap! Its amazing what we have to do sometimes. I'm assuming its because the trash isn't far enough away to stop the sudden impulse. I go through the same thing....I have to take the trash out if I want to escape temptation sometimes. GOOD FOR YOU for passing up those sandwiches. PB and J is a trigger for me too, and I hate making it for my son. Although just about everything is a trigger for me.
