Carbs per Day?

  • Ok, first of all I would like to apologize for all of these questions!!! I'm a little "slow" LOL.
    Anyway, I was wondering how many carbs per day is considered a good amount to start the CAD diet? I don't know where to begin as far as how many carbs per day in my diet. Thanks again everyone!
  • Dont worry about the questions. That's why were here to help you out.

    Like I said before I don't remember too much about CAD but I think that you have to have everything even. What I mean to say is that you have to have your plate visually cut into three sections and put equal portions of protein, low carb veggie and your high carb choice on your plate. You should also have a side salad or more low carb veggies. If you go back for seconds you must have somemore of everything and they must be equal portions.

    I'm sure that there's someone on this board that know more details about CAD.

    Did you get the book? If you dont want to have to spend the $$ on the book try getting it at the library. I've even bought books that were used of off Amazon.com

    Hope this helps, ChrissyB
  • Chrissy ,
    Thank you so much for the information! You are a GREAT help. I will be getting the book this weekend. I have to travel to my "local" Borders book store! I will just try to follow as best as I can until then. I will also keep a journal as (I think) you suggested. Thanks for your help. What a friendly board!
