Re: veggie ideas for the gal who hates veggies!!!

I would just like to thank everyone for their support. I am on Day Three of Induction and have been cheat free. I won't lie and said I haven't been tempted, but I've managed to stay on track. With all these great veggie ideas, I'm actually excited to try things. I'm making a chili and plan to throw in some veggies diced up so I don't pick them out! Force of habit, pick out the veggies and eat the rest. No longer though. I'm finally on the right path and its feeling really good.

There you go. You are doing awesome!!!! We were all tempted the first few days of induction. The longer you are cheat free the less tempting any carb food are. Keep it up!

I completely disagree with Dave ..you must eat your veggies andyou need to get hung up on them!!!

Awesome Heidi! It would be a dull old place if we didn't disagree!


Lindsay, good on you!

I'm not a real big fan of vegetables either and have to disguise them (except for salads, which I love) as something "fun." One great way is to take frozen chopped spinach, cook and drain, add crumbled bacon, sourcream and cheddar cheese, mix up and bake. Good luck on finding what works for you.

That's a great idea PizzaManNoMore! Spinach is such a great vegetable with lots of bang for the carbohydrate buck IMO! Too bad the fresh stuff is off limits right now...I really love that as the base for my salad instead of lettuce.
