HI
im loosing - 16lbs so far.. 3 wks induction, but I was doing some reading today (Atkins, just making sure im doing it right!) and now ive confused myself over carbs..
well im eating 3 meals a day.. ike this:
2 eggs (omlette)
1 thumb size piece of cheddar
1 thin slice of onion
................................................
2 chicken skinless chicken breasts
2 cups green salad, 3 cherry tomatoes
.................................................. .
salmon
1 cup -stir fry green peppers, courgettes, chilli, corriander, garlic
.................................................. ...
LOTS OF WATER - 20 good size glasses a day
*Does this total 20 carbs?? I know im over here in UK and carb total is worked out differently... but, what im asking is what does the 2 cups salad, plus 1 veg equal too in carbs? then I can know what else I can add - for example mayonaise, boiled egg etc.. for snacks.
I havent kept track of daily carbs because of this - but i really want to s I know to move up a level I will have to eventually understand my own CCL etc... so wanna get basics spot on first!
I still want to stay on induction until I have lost another 40lbs, so I have plenty of time to get it right!!
I think the weight has come off so far cos ive just kept to basics - but I know i will get bored if i dont introduce some other tastes xx
Thanks!
