Snacking....

  • Just wondering, if your hungry at night, like I am right now!, can I snack on lettuce greens? Also the plan says 2 cups veggies at meals...can you have more veggies or just 2 cups and fill up the rest on lettuce greens?
  • Lettuce is the only unlimited food allowed on Phase 1 - you can eat as much of it as you want, whenever you want! There were MANY days when I had 2 or 3 bowls of lettuce to get over a snacking hump.

    Regarding the vegetables, you can have a total of 4 cups of veggies per day (measured raw). That's it. If you aren't as hungry early in the day, you can certainly use 1 cup at lunch, and then either have 1 cup as a midafternoon snack and 2 cups at dinner, or have 3 cups at dinner. As long as you have the 4 cups over the course of the whole day you can break it up a little if you need to.
  • Awesome! thank you!
  • I save an IP shake for night because I hate going to bed hungry. I love the chocolate drink mixed with some decaf and then warmed in the microwave. Tastes like a mocha!
