Morning: fried eggs, two slices of bacon, water, coffee/Splenda.
Afternoon: baked duck, canned tomatoes ( about 2 carbs per serving), water.
Everning: a few pieces of salami, cheese, green apple and coffee. Had about 6 bottles of water ( 8 oz ) and a few cups of tea/Splenda. Plus - snacks - sugar free jello and one sugar free hershey's bar ( small - bite size).
Was hungry all day alone. Could not see anymore cheese and meat.
I think, I am running out of "low carb ideas...."

As far as medications goes , I took Tylenol 500 mg po ( to total of about 2000 mg /day) and two Robbitussin/cough/cold/flu po. Nothing else .

Be real careful when taking medication. Read the ingredients on the robitussion. It more thatn likely contains sugar.

If your craving, then you've consumed sugar. As you know the reason you go through induction for 2 weeks is to detoxe off of sugar. You don't have to OD on cheese and meat. check the recipes you'll find alot of variety. sugar-free jello and hershey bars can trigger cravings. Some people can eat the artifical sugars and some can not. The taste is still sweet and "confuses" the body and it reacts as if the sugar was real.
Also try to eat more green veggies. I know It's tough to fix a meal when sick you just want to grab whats at hand. Hang in there. Glad your feeling better.
