    Fibre

    Is the main reason other than the nutrients for needing so much vegetables just to make sure you get enough fibre????

    How many vegetables are you eating?

        How much, exactly?

        How many net carbs are you getting in total, and how many are coming from vegetables?

            That sounds good. I asked because you were unhappy for not losing weight. If you want help with that, you could post a menu.

            To answer your question... We want vegetables for fiber, but also for the nutrients in them. They are full of vitamins and minerals, and the Induction vegetables are relatively low in net carbs.

            By the way, talking about vegetables, you might want to join the Veggie Challenge. Starts tomorrow and it's an awesome challenge! Here's the link to it:
