Friday is kind of my "splurge" day. I don't normally eat cheese except on Fridays, and sometimes I may go over 20 carbs on my splurge day. It seems to work for me.
Breakfast: 3 egg omelet w/ cheese, 3 pieces bacon(couldn't finish this,lol)
Lunch:Burger w/ mushrooms
Dinner: Thinking of making a low carb pizza and salad, and maybe some wings.. YUM

I'm going to join in, hopefully you all don't mind This is day 2 of my induction. I weigh all of my vegetables, because I am sooo paranoid about going over 20grams of carbs lol

breakfast - Omelet w/ 2 eggs, 1oz cheese, turkey bacon, red&green peppers, onion + 1tb butter (5g) I haven't cooked with butter in forever, so this was heavenly hehe
lunch - 2 deviled eggs + Spinach (4.2g)
Snack - 2oz cheese + 10 green olives (1)
Dinner - 4oz chicken + Salad + 6 grape tomatoes + 1oz cheese + 2tb dressing (7.5)
2 pieces of sugar free gum (2)
Carb Total = 19.7

(P.S. I mentioned it up there, but I am doing the 2010 version.. so the items might be different than what you're allowed if you're doing an older version.)

Sorry I posted that other comment in here..supposed to be for the main April thread. Here's my breakfast today.

2 eggs fried with PAM spray and sprinkled shredded cheese on top
4 slices bacon
1 One Minute Muffin
Coffee with cream and splenda

I think the cheese is 1, bacon is 0, OMM is 1 and cream/splenda is 2.. Probably not exact, but close on my carb count.

I really went over my caloric goal yesterday. Ended up having 2090 calories (about 590 too many) but only had 20 grams of carbs. Whew! For some reason, I was really hungry during dinner.

Here's my plan for today:

Breakfast:
Atkins Bar (I'm sooooo sick of eggs) - 2g
Coffee with 3/4 tsp Truvia - 3g
2 TBSP heavy whipping cream with my coffee - 0g

Mid-morining snack:
1.3 oz smoked gouda - 3g

Lunch:
6 oz baked turkey breast - 0
20 sugar snap peas - 5g
1 c. green beans - 10g

Afternoon snack:
1 Babybel triangle - 1g

Dinner:
4 oz ground beef - 0g
1 oz cheddar cheese - 0g
Salad mix -4g
2 TBSP Ranch dressing - 2g
1/4 c mushrooms - 1g
1 TBSP bacon - 0g

Totals: 1270 cals & 31 g carbs

I know I'm going over my goal of 20 g of carbs, but I had some green beans to finish before they went bad. I've got to get out of the habit of feeling guilty about throwing food away.

I hope it's okay to ask a quick question here. I've been reading about "net carbs" and wonder if that's how I should be calculating my carb counts. I've started taking 1 tsp of sugar-free Metamucil and wonder if I should count it as 5 grams or 2 grams (5 minus 3 grams of fiber.) Any thoughts?

Here's my plan for today:

Breakfast:
3 eggs (1g)
1/4 cheese crumbles (1g)
Heavy cream with coffee (1g)
2 oz sausage (0g)
1 TBSP butter (0g)

Mid a.m. snack:
1.3 oz smoked gouda (1g)

Lunch:
Salad mix (4g)
Steak strips (0g)
Blue cheese crumbles (1g)
Blue cheese dressing (1g)

Afternoon Snack:
1 Laughing Cow cheese triangle (1g)

Dinner:
4 oz corned beef (.5g)
3 oz Salad mix (4g)
2 TBSP Caesar dressing (1g)
1/4 c Mushrooms (1g)

About net carbs, it depends on which book you are following. In the book I have (2010 version), it says count net carbs, and I believe in the 2002 version it says to as well, but I am not positive. If you go by the 72' or 92' book I believe it is total carbs.
