Oh My!!!! You're gonna laugh at me!

April 14, 2009, 04:48 AM

Ive been soooo stupid I ve been trying to transition to OWL and have been thinking and thinking and puting it into fitday and get my carbs over 20. I couldnt figure out what was going on and it just dawned on me while I was looking in the Atkins book......

I cant believe it ! When Dr. Atkins said add 5 grams of carbs I was adding 5 grams more veggies. I was weighing on the scale 5 more grams lol!!! How stupid is that lol!!! I wasnt thinking of 5 grams of carbs. I thought it was weird cuz in the book under Power of 5 the quantities were big and here i was with this tiny sliver of a zucchini that was 5 grams and i thought something was wrong.

Im glad i finally figured it out.

That IS funny!!! Today I think I'll weigh out 5 grams of zucchini just to see how tiny the portion is!

Glad you figured it out!
