Newby here!!
I hope this is the right place to post some basic questions.
I'm finishing my 1st week of phase 2 and want to be sure I'm following the plan correctly. If I eat a salad with 2 tbs of SB friendly dressing, is that my limit for fat for the day? Does cheese count towards protein and is there a limit for it? I eat a lot of reduced fat cheese, and I'm just concerned that I'm missing something about a limit. Not seeing it in the book.
My first week of phase 2 I added a whole grain slice of bread. It seems like now I'm always hungry. I feel like I'm always snacking. I'm eating SB snacks, but my stomach is always rumbling. I don't know how i can get more protein or vegetables in. I want to add more beans, but snacking on beans seems tough.
Typical day:
Breakfast: SF creamer w coffee
Quiche w egg whites, spinach, mushrooms, low fat cheese, Turkey sausage
Whole grain slice of bread with 1 tbs margarine
Snack: Celery with no added sugar peanut butter or laughing cow cheese
Lunch: salad w chicken, 2 tbs SB friendly dressing, chickpeas, black olives, reduced fat parmesan
Snack: 15 almonds
Starving now
Dinner: shrimp, cauliflower mashed potatoes, asparagus
Starving before bed
Snack: deli turkey. (Still hungry)
Thank you!
