It has to be 0/0/0. If you find a P cheese that's 0/0/0 please share its name!

Ask your coach. Mine said I could have 1 oz of cheese in lieu of the 1 oz of milk in morning tea/coffee.

I heard too that we could have feta instead of the morning milk and my coach advised to check for equivalent calorie / fat count to milk. Plus she preferred me to eat this early in the day and only occasionally not every day.

I have eaten Parmesean Cheese since week 3 and I am on week 9/10. My coach said no with all the carbs and I said there are none and she didnt respond. It is the only way sometimes I can get my salad in! But this is me and we are all different!

Just be aware that it can be a slippery slope...add a little of this and a little of that. But, yep, I add a little from time to time. It is yummy and typically no carbs. So it adds a few cals...just be more mindful to be a bit more active that day

Actually it's carbs, fat, and sugars, not calories.

I've had parmasan cheese since week 2, i never drink my 1 oz of allowed milk, so i find it to be the equivalent. Also, kraft non fat shredded mozzeralla has no fat, less than one carb and no sugars. I find the cheese to be way more satisfying than the milk in my coffee.

Also, I want to add, some people think that one cheat leads to another, but i see it as keeping me sane throughout this process. This is a lifestyle choice and phase one is not the way we will be eating for the rest of our lives. I think if i satisfy my cravings by using parmasan cheese or non fat dressing with no sugar and less than one carb it makes this whole process easier.

I think we should encourage newbies to stay 100% OP...its' the best way this diet works. And if they struggle they can decide for themselves if they want to cheat. Just my two cents...and yes I haven't cheated once. No one ever said dieting is easy.

i was by no means encouraging anyone, everyone here is an adult they can make their own decisions. I was just saying, i dont beat myself up over it because it helps me to stay motivated.
