      Black olives, sliced, one spoonful, is 15 calories and 1gm carb.
      Not too bad to have a few. Have a good one.

              Yes, they are allowed. They are on the Special Category Foods List and you are allowed 10-20 olives a day. If you see a slow down in your weightloss, you may want to avoid them for the first two weeks of Induction and use them in moderation.

                      I love black olives! Such a great snack but you will want to drink water with them due to their salt content.

                          I too love black olives--they are full of heart healthy fat and so-o-o-o tasty.

                          I ate them during induction (10 per day max) and still have several almost every day either alone or sliced up in salad. I buy 6 cans at a time at Sam's which lowers the price a bit.

                              Olives are good (stick to the allowed amount in induction). Watch the sodium though; some kinds are pretty salty.

                                  yep...enjoy them, but like all foods, keep track of how they affect your body.
