Guest guest Posted July 23, 2004 Report Share Posted July 23, 2004 You could still have 20 or 25 grams of carbs, you don't have to count veggies as a carb, they are good for you. Anne Marie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 23, 2004 Report Share Posted July 23, 2004 That is SO good to hear! Thanks for the reminder to those of us who are fresh off of Atkins. I've been kind of afraid to have more than a portion size of broccoli or salad at once . . . which leads to my eating veggies at nearly every meal because I've been craving them so badly! Guess I'd better crack open BFL again and reread what he says about veggies! (And my new mantra for the day: veggies are good . . . love the veggies . . .) Re: Chefs salad question Sounds good. Just don't be afraid to have lots of the veggies if you want them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 23, 2004 Report Share Posted July 23, 2004 You can eat those veggies with all six meals if you want. The BFL guideline is a MINIMUM of 2 servings a day... and the portion sizes for protein & carbs don't apply to veggies... you can eat them to your heart's content. If you read Mina Hobbi's posts that so kindly re-posted recently, she ate something like 3 cups of veggies at a time! > That is SO good to hear!
