My questions: What can I do to jazz up the puddings? Also - I noticed some of you aren't doing 2C veggies 2X/day. Why is that?

Still learning around here... I love veggies but why am I already getting sick of them?!?!

Really MISSING carbs.... is day two supposed to be this hard?

I make the puddings into a shake by adding a little bit more water, some ice and mixing it all up in the blender.

It will get easier! I don't even crave carbs...The first couple weeks are the hardest..but you will get through it!! As far as veggies go, if i'm not able to get my veggies in at lunch (or breakfast) I pile em' on at my dinner time. I don't think 4 cups of veggies is much at all, so we have them at dinner. There are several ways to add in veggies into your day, one being making your pudding into a shake and then adding in a c. of fresh spinach in the blender...and you can't even taste it! Also, LizRR has a thread of recipes for veggie purees that sound heavenly..plus, you can just roast them for something different. Roasting makes so much difference in the way veggies taste. Good luck and hang in there!!!!!

Breakfast: Balanced Protein Rich chocolate caramel bar, coffee w/2oz EAS Carb AdvantEDGE vanilla shake

Dinner: Curried pork chops (with bell pepper and mushrooms) over Cauli-rice

Thank you ALL!!
