Hi Taylor
We dont count the carbs on SBD, but as a guideline, during Phase 1 you should aim to eat 1/2 cup of veggies at breakfast, 2 cups with lunch, and 2 with dinner. You can also add veggies to your snacks.
You also will do well to add beans to your meals - beans are really good for you and
are a healthy carb. If you are a meat eater, check out the Taco Bake recipe in the recipes area of the Forum. Its in the Entrees for Phase 1 part. That includes beans and is yummy!
I added 3 bean salads to my meals in the evening, or would just simply sprinkle a few kidney beans onto my lunch salad etc.
Just on a personal note, the first time I tried SBD I did NOT use beans, and I felt unwell and fell off the diet at about day 8.
Beans are highly recommended on this plan!!
