  • Berries

    Hi everyone! Just a quick question but I started in the berry rung 2 weeks ago and I've been eating a half-cup of cottage cheese with my bluberries in the morning with my breakfast, should I space it out or can I keep eating it with my breakfast?

    Re: Berries

    I guess I dunno what you are asking? Space out the berries or....? I dont see any reason to space them out since you are eating them with a full fat cottage cheese.

    I eat my berries for breakfast when I have greek yogurt. When I dont, they become a snack inthe evenings.

    (and fwiw, strawberries make we want to eat the ENTIRE house unless I eat them with a fat AND a protein)

      If you eat the berries, make sure you eat it in combination with a fat and/or protein. Don't eat them plain.

      As for when you eat the berries, it's up to you and how your body reacts to them.

          If you are using fullfat cottage cheese, you should be okay.
          Like my greek yogurt, it has 10gfat and 6g protein for a halfcup and I do okay with it and blueberries.

            Oh yum, Kimberly, that sounds delicious! And a great way to both add fat to your berries, and to stretch both portions into a nice, filling meal. I need to do that one of these mornings.
            No stats. Not weighing anymore ever. Will post "before and after" pictures when I want to. The end.

            Vigilance, not perfection.

              Isn't Greek yogurt the best?

                You are so right, Erin
                I thought I would miss out the dairy rung originally, as I dont like the taste of milk, but someone reminded me that yogurt was a rung 2 food! YUMMY!
                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!

                  I will be so happy when I get there. I've been craving yogurt since I started. It's probably because I was eating so much of it before and now I know I can't have it!
