I'm almost done with week 2 of Induction. Although I have decided that I'm going to stay on Induction until I drop 15 lbs, I have been reading further in to DANDR again, to start familiarizing myself with OWL and get in the right frame of mind for it.
I came across Dr. Atkins list of the order of carbs to start adding when you go on to OWL.
This is like this--
1. More salad and Induction friendly veggies
2. Fresh cheeses
3. Seeds and nuts
4. Berries
5. Wine and other low carb spirits
6. Legumes
7. Fruits other than berries and melons
8. Starchy veggies
9. Whole grains
My question is--is this how those who have been successful and have moved on to maintenance did it? I'm asking because, to be honest, I'm not sure how many more veggies I can incorporate.
I've been doing pretty well because I do love salads and salad veggies, but by the same token, I'm having a difficult time getting in just the basic 20 carbs a day already. This is because I'm not hungry really, not because I hate the veggiesI'm eating 3-4 servings of veggies a day right now and, while I can bump it up a bit more, yes...I'm not sure if I can stomach eating that many veggies to make 25 carbs a day.
