  • Another start...

    Tomorrow is yet another attempt (hopefully the last for a long time) at Day 1 of Induction for me. I've already planned out my menu and put it into fitday but my amounts are a little off, can someone help please!?!?!

    My menu is:

    Breakfast:
    2 eggs scrambled w/green peppers & onions fried in butter
    1 slice of american cheese over eggs
    3 slices turkey bacon

    Lunch:
    Salad -
    1.5 cup iceberg lettuce
    grated cheddar cheese
    Bacon Bits
    1 cut up grilled chicken breast
    ranch dressing

    snack:
    (10) Pepperoni slices

    Dinner:
    Lobster pieces wrapped in bacon and cooked in garlic butter
    small side dinner salad
    16 oz. tea sweetened with 2 packets of splenda


    Water Goal : 120 oz (7.5 refills of my 16 oz. thermos)

    Supplements:
    (3) Atkins Brand Basic 3 Daily Vitamins
    (3) Apex Fat Burn 3 (recommended by my personal trainer - but they have caffeine in them so not sure on these yet...)

    Exercise:
    (1) 10 minute "Dance away the pounds" workout
    20 minutes elliptical


    And fitday says the totals are as follows:

    Totals:
    Calories: 1262
    Fat: 76g = 56%
    Carbs: 16g = 4%
    Protein: 123g = 40%

    What do I need to add in to get my totals closer to what Dr Atkins recommends?

    Re: Another start...

    Hey there! first, you can try switching from turkey bacon to regular pork bacon. Would that be possible? Did you enter any dressing for your dinner salad? How about some nice ranch? Otherwise, I think it looks like a pretty good menu! I'd probably nix those fatburn supplements though....you'll be doing enough of that with natural ketosis.
