Darbs, your menus look great. Keep up the good work!
I've been working on adding more veggies...my next hurdle is eating breakfast. I hate waking up and having to clean butter and egg off of the pan.

breakfast: none
lunch: 2c stir-fry veggies with seasoning and 1T soy sauce, 1/2c broccoli cheese soup (13.5) pretty carby, but mostly from veggies.
dinner: 2c salad w/ seasoned ground beef, cheese, and sour cream (7)
total: 20.5

breakfast: none (I really need to work on this...)
lunch: 2c stir-fry veggies, seasoning, 1T soy sauce, 1/2c broccoli cheese soup (13.5)
dinner: chili w/ 1c salad and vinegar/oil dressing (6)
snack: deviled egg halves (1)
total: 20.5

Thanks Linsy and of course today I have a major lack of veggies and I gave in to an Atkins bar

Total calories 1414 carbs36, net 20
Fat 54%, Carbs 10%, protein 36%

eggs, feta, kelbasa
almonds, atkins shake, olives
salad with chicken
chicken with feta and pecans (burnt the collards..no veggie)

moment of weakness...just gave in to an Atkins bar (one left and then I won't buy them again)

It's okay, everyone has slip-ups--tonight after I already ate my chili I had some extra bites of everyone else's chili which had beans in it :eek:. I probably went over my carbs. Sometimes that stuff happens so I try not to stress out about it. I don't think eating that one Atkins bar will hurt as long as you don't make it an regular thing.

Don't be discouraged you'll get it. I think I eat a lot actually and I don't ever feel deprived. Well maybe a little when I want some fries! LOL, but not usually. I think the book recommends 20g on induction. Remember meat and salad are your friend at meals, and for snacks, cheese, pepperoni, cucumbers, dips, celery, porkrinds, and deviled eggs are satisfying. These foods are low to zero carbs! Good luck!
