I haven't gotten my book yet. I've been reading that you need to have more fat or meat in your diet but I doubt I'm doing this because I'm eating more veggies.
This has pretty much been my diet since 3 days after starting the Induction Phase. I love all that I have here. I can do with out the bacon in the salad. So that's not a biggy to let go of.
Breakfast: 2 scrambled eggs in 1 tbs of olive oil
2 pieces of bacon (no sugar or or that other thing added)
decaf coffee with 1 splenda packets and 1 tsp of creamer.
Lunch: 1 salman baked with garlic and Italian seasoning
Salad: 3 cups of lettuce
1/2 red bell pepper
1 egg, hard boiled
1 bacon, chopped
dressing: 2/3 tbs of olive oil and vinegar
Dinner: 1 chicken breast, baked with same seasonings as above
1 cheddar cheese, 1 inch cube.
Salad: 2 cups of lettuce
1/2 red bell pepper
Dressing: same as above
I drink water the whole day and also drink it with my lunch and dinner.
Is this okay or do I need to add red meat?
But, I do agree you need to add more fats....mayo, butter, fatty cuts of meat. Most people think Atkins is a high protein diet...when in reality, its a high fat, adequate protein diet. That being said, you need to eat more fat since you are eating lower carbs...the fat you are eating is what is burned for fuel.
