    Rung 2 question

    Good Monday everyone! I posted the following question in the "4th of July Challenge" I'm in but I guess no one is around to answer my question yet. So I decided to post it here since I really need an answer really soon. Thanks

    I know Julieramma suggested to stay on each Rung anywhere between 2-4 weeks before moving on. O.k., so I stayed on Rung 1 for 3 weeks, eating bewtween 20 - 25 carbs a day (including my 1 1/2 cups of veggies, cheese, etc), and now moving on to Rung 2 today.

    The question is: Can I add the 1/2 cup of cottage cheese to my 3 1/2 cups of veggies and stay withing the 25 carbs? Or do I cut back to 3 cups of veggies and just add the 1/2 cup of cottage cheese?
    Still a little confused as you can see. Thanks!

    Re: Rung 2 question

    I need to make a correction to the previous post. I'm actually eating 3 1/2 cups of veggies not 1 1/2. Typo, sorry.

      If you want to keep your carbs at 25, eat your induction veggies, and add a serving of dairy from rung 2. That way you're only experimenting with one variable at a time. Eat a carb level you know your body can handle (25g) and add a new food. So, if you have a day where you eat your new dairy food, don't add a rung 1 serving of veggies. If you don't eat a new dairy food, you can have a rung 1 serving to get your carbs to 25g.
