    >> 1lb Jimmy Dean Regular Pork Sausage>>

    This has sugar in it.

    I would use a brand that doesn't ... such as Bob Evans or Jones or ...

    >> Net carbs...not really sure.
    On fit day its saying 18g I know I'm suposed to be in the 25g mark now...so how do I up my veggies if Im rarely even hungry these days?>>

    Why don't you know?

    You need to count up the total carbs of your vegetables, then subtract the total fiber from those same vegetables ... then you'll know the net carbs of your vegetables.

    >>I have no idea what you mean by the day of the end of the week ends in "y">>

    Well ... everyday of the week ends in a "y".

    Sometimes there is no "reason" for why we bloat.

    So I came up with the idea that it happens because the day of the week ends in a "y".

    It's humor!

    okay so you add 5 net grams of those veggies to your 18-20 so you eat 23-25 now.

    you could be bloated as an intolerance of the 5 net grams of spinach if you added that much more or you could just be bloated just cause you are and you will not know the reason.

    breath and don't worry you will learn it and then you will be teaching newbies asking the exact same questions.

    now again what was your net carb count for induction days? that is all you need to worry about right now

    if you are 3 cups of lettuce and your net was only 2 then you would add 5 more net grams of any of those 54 legal veggies in your DANDR chapter 11 lists as your OWL rung one food to test first for a total of 7 net grams a day

    Re: Gaining?

    were any of those pizza toppings new to you foods? if so you could be having a food intolerance causing the bloating.

    if not it could be the extra sodium in them

    OWL isn't about getting to 25 with your first addition it is about adding 5 more net grams to where you ate your induction. so if your induction was 12 total then your OWL begins at 17. if your induction was 15 then your OWL starts at 20.

    how you get your veggies is you should be eating your induction 3 cups plus you added 5 more net grams of them to your menu

    you can roast many of them and then puree them to make a dip or sprerad. you can make a soup out of them stuff your protein with them like spinach pinwheels. you can could one pot meals with lots of your induction legal veggies in there like a stew with radishes as the taters onions tomotoes green beans mushrooms etc.
