  • I think it looks legal....

    I know I blew it on the brussel sprouts yesterday! Now, I'm going to make my menu a couple days before, print it, and check it off as I go..

    Looks good except for the half and half. We try to use cream instead as it has fewer carbs.
    Your stats are 75% fat 20%protein and 6% carbs. You should aim for 60% fat, 35 % protein and 5% carbs but I don't see a lot of fat in your plan. AND while it said 18.8 grams of carbs, you really only had 7 cause you deduct the fiber.
    All and all, I give you a A..

      The last few days looked pretty good. You probably had too much egg salad there one day but....
      I suggest being careful not to eat too little. Your protein servings (meat, egg) could be a bit bigger. If you eat to little and starve you may cancel out the good effects of getting into ketosis.

        Thanks to both of you!
        On Fitday...I just punched in the food and the info on them came up...should I change the carb content on them to compensate for the fiber? Too bad there isn't a program like that especially for Atkins!
        Desertthorn, the cream as in heavy whipping cream? I haven't been buying it because it's sooo much more expense, but I will reconsider!

          No you don't have to. After you've done entering your foods just look at the pie chart underneath and then just do a bit of quick math in your head. Say if you have 24 carbs and then it lists 8 fibre, it means you ate 16 net carbs.

          So for today there are 18.7 total carbs and 10.7 fibre so your net carbs was 8.7. It could be higher but you ate a lot of veggies so I think it is fine.

            I know whipping cream or heavy cream is expensive but you could cut it with water if you like.
