  • Forgot To Ask....

    this question. This is day 9 for me, but I never asked or understood about salads. Is it 2 cups of just leafy greens and 1 cup veg. added to it. or is it 2 cups of a salad and 1 cup veg. with another meal?

    odirish,

    You can have 3 cups of salad vegatables, OR 2 cups of salad vegetables + 1 cup other vegatables. I hope you are not eating all your veggies at once...you should be spreading them out throughout your meals so you don't spike your blood sugar!

    I hope I was of help!

      And take a good look at the 'salad veg' list - lots more variety other than leafy green salads!!
      alfalfa sprouts, daikon, mushrooms, arugula, endive, parsley, bok choy, escarole, peppers, celery, fennel, radicchio, chicory, jicama, radishes, chives, lettuce, romaine lettuce, cucumber, mâche, sorrel
      Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?

        Another question...I dropped 3 lbs. during my first few days of induction and then stalled out. Today is Day 12. If I'm already stalled, what's going to happen when I move to the first rung of the ladder? There's no way I'm staying on Induction forever .

          apparently it's called P.I.S. or so my husband tells me, (post induction syndrome)
          its common after induction.

            And many people find their weightloss picks up after a standstill when they move on to OWL!
