VEGGIE QUESTION and CREAM QUESTION

[foojoy]

I think I'm eating too many allowable veggies, but I'm still within the 20 net carbs. I go by, for example, on my package of baby spinach it says that the serving size is 3oz and the net carbs are 1 for the 3oz. I think that I've stalled. Maybe it's the sugar free gum, that I'm so desperately trying to kick .

My second question is in the 2002 book that we follow, why don't they include decaf cofffe/tea in the induction menu?

Thanks for your support!

Re: VEGGIE QUESTION and CREAM QUESTION

Just measure out your veggies with a measuring cup. Two cups of salad veggies and one cup of "other veggies" or three cups of the salad veggies. You have to remember to subtract fiber from the grams of carbs. You can plug in all of your foods at http://www.fitday.com

On the acceptable food list Atkins says that decaf tea/coffee is fine but they do not count towards your water intake. The sample menu's in the book are just that. Samples. You should post what you are eating in the Review Menu forum. You will likely get a lot of good info!

Um, what was the cream question?
