It's Official!!!!!!!!!
 

I am welcoming myself to Induction and a full fledged member of the board! :D :dizzy:

I am pretty confident about everything so far, I really only have one question. Most fresh vegetables don't have carb count labels on them :lol:

That being said, how do I know I am not going over 20 grams? Am I just supposed to assume that if I stay on the induction list and don't go over 3 cups of veggies that I stay below 20 grams?

Obviously I know to count things that have carbs in the labels like dressing and cheese, mayo and sweetener and what not, I am just a little confused. :?: I am pretty sure it's not 20 carbs in addition to what is on the Induction list and I can't seem to find anything to answer my question in the book so any help would be nifty :)

Me too, I just kicked off yesterday! :jig:
I'm a little wobbly from the lack of sugar - I *was* an absolute sugar junkie/chocoholic/carb addict :ink: (that sounds awful, doesn't it?!)

Anyway, I'm looking forward to shopping for regular size clothes that aren't 50 years too old for me! :stars:

You can stick to the amount of veggies that Atkins says or you can try www.fitday.com and track what you eat and the amount of carbs. Remember to subtract the fiber. Good luck!!

If you've got the Atkins book, it shows the carb count of veggies there. Or there's this website:http://www.lowcarbgrocery.com/carb.html Or I'm sure the Atkins site has a counter as well.
Good luck and welcome Randy And Raven
