Quick Question about Heavy Cream
Ok...if you have more than the 3 tbsp will that cause issues? I usually have about 5 tbsp in my coffee in the morning....
Bad or Ok?

Re: Quick Question about Heavy Cream
Heavy cream is limited to 2 - 3 tablespoons daily. But it is also listed in the Special Category Foods section as 3 ounces (fluid.)
Please note the foods in the Special Category are there because they may cause weight loss difficulties in some people.
By the way....how much coffee are you drinking at one go? 5 tablespoons is about 1/3 cup.~Megs~

Re: Quick Question about Heavy Cream
Just curious, but why do some of the reciepes call for like 1/4 cup to 1 cup heavy cream but the net carbs are less than what the cream would be for the whole thing? Any idea?

Re: Quick Question about Heavy Cream
They might be figuring the net carbs per serving of the recipe, rather than the total recipe. So read any recipe very carefully, and re-check the carb counts on them. I've found discrepancies in carb counts in popular low carb cookbooks and fitday.com or the USDA Nutrient Database. So re-check those counts yourself.Originally posted by SueSue1212 View Post~Megs~

Re: Quick Question about Heavy Cream
ALl the cream in Aus is thick, heavy cream - it's not runny at all... you like... get a 'dollop' on your spoon when you stick it in. This is the same right?SW: 140.8

Re: Quick Question about Heavy Cream
Yes, Dot, the same stuff. When I buy our 'double cream' here in UK it starts off as runny but if I dont open the pot for a few days it has gone solid as you describe it. If I want it to be runny I just add water and mix it in to the preferred consistency.Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?

Re: Quick Question about Heavy Cream
ok, I think I bought the wrong stuff then. This is my FIRST day on Atkins and we bought Heavy cream but it's TOTALLY a liquid. You pour it into coffee but it's not Half n Half...I saw thought but knew that was wrong. It says Heavy Whipping Cream, but has no added sugars...no sugars at all and no carbs. Help?Originally posted by Elizellen View Post
We planned our shopping trip so well...lots of chicken and leafy greens and BUTTER, but the dairy bit sort of a challenge.Comment

Re: Quick Question about Heavy Cream
I think you are OK
Cream comes in all different consistencies, from something like thick milk to something more like cream cheese.Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?

ahh, ok! All this stuff can be enough to confuse anyone at first.
I am waiting on my DANDR to get here, I put in my request for a swap copy of it on paperbackswap.com and it's enroute.
thanks for your help...much appreciated!Comment
