    Re: Law of Portion Size

    Over eating fat will halt your loss as well in my humble opinion. I struggled with my first 3 years on low carb. WHY? I ate too darn much. Though I wasn't gaining, I was probably eating a few hundred grams of fat a day.

    Sticking to the rules of portion sizes using your palm is a good measure.
    That's usually 3-4 oz of meat which is perfect for me.
    Make it a happy low carb life!

      You are so right, Fawn.
      Just like the lady Dr Atkins wrote about who was not losing because she was eating a stick of butter every day as a snack!
      Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
      Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!



      Check out our Low Carb Recipes website and add to it!!
