My name is Paula aka:green rn on the sb weekly support board. go to 3 fat chicks helthy weight loss spport forums and click on the sugar busters weekly support board. Here there are very knowledgable people on sugar busters.
As I am still a junior member my knowledge is very limited. I tried Atkins, but was not compliant as I was starving for carbs.
I feel sugar busters is a lot healther for you as you eat a lot of fresh fruits and vegies, whole wheat pasta and 100% semolina pasta is legal, as is wild rice and brown rices. Also stone ground whole wheat flour and several breads. Your carbs are low glycemic, to reduce the increase in blood sugar and secreation of insulin. No white potatoes, white flours, beets, carrots(in large quanities)or corn products. may eat sweet potatoes.
You must eat fruit 30 minutes before any meal, or 2 hours after a meal. No watermellon, pinapples, or bananas.
You may eat nuts.
You can eat foods that are 3 grams of sugar or less per serving, that includes sugar free pudding, sugar free ice cream, sugar free candy.
You can eat cereal with milk, esp. old fashion oatmeal, peanut butter, beans and lentals, the list goes on and on.
Three meals a day, with 3 snacks a day.
I think you eat 40 % protein, 30 % carbs, and 30 % fat.
Look foreward to seeing you on the sugar busters weekly support board.
