  • No Salad..."other" veggies

    I know that you can have one cup of some veggies like tomato, squash, zucchinni if you don't have more than 2 cups of salad. But what if I don't have any salad? What if I make the tomato, zucchinni, cucumbers, etc my salad? Then can I have more than one cup?

    Shams,
    go get your book out and turn to pg 125 & 126 where it lists that you can have 2-3 cups per day of cucumber...etc... while squash is limited to 1 cup per day...the whole list is there... keep the book hand and put a marker there so you can find it easy.
    hope that helps.

      Liz is right - you can have 2-3 cups of several other veggies like sweet peppers, radishes & celery amongst others.
      Check the list of one and 2-3 cup veggies again to make sure you choose correctly.

      And after your 14 day induction move to OWL when you can add 5 net carbs from the one cup list if you like!!
      Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
      Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!
